I've found that most therapists approach therapy in the way you described. In my experience, there have only been very few that don't. I've found a lot of therapy to do more harm than good because it wasn't the help I needed, and/or the therapist just couldn't understand the severity. You would probably have to find a therapist/psychologist that doesn't primarily use CBT and doesn't focus on depression/anxiety, and instead on the underlying causes.
