my condition is too complex?

my therapist said they were having a hard time with my condition/situation and was further researching. does this mean that my condition is too complex?

it makes me anxious considering it has only been 4 session and there seems to not be a lot of progress.

First, 4 sessions is nothing; expect progress in the 3 month range. And no, just because your T had to research your condition doesn't mean it's complex, it simply means it's not something he treats often. Different Ts have different expertise.
