The therapist should at least be engaged in the session and actively listening - if they're just scrolling through their phone, find a different therapist.
But if you've been to 11 therapists and none worked, the problem is probably not all 11 of the therapists.
You have to be at least engaged in the session and actively introspecting too. If you're not curious about where your issues stem from and willing to try some (oftentimes difficult) approaches to dealing with them, the therapist isn't going to be either. They'll happily take your money and give you their time, but there isn't anything to work with to get better.
