If your problem is a barrier problem, then that's theirs too to deal with too. Your therapist should help you find someone who can deal with you, specifically. Otherwise they aren't doing their job.

That's pretty much the only ethical reason, the other being circumstances outside their control
that doesn't mean it's the only reason
some therapists have a strong emotional reaction to something and react too quickly based on their initial reaction without taking enough time to process and think about it
some therapists don't think things through or misjudge
some therapists aren't ethical and willingly and knowingly hurt a client/patient in a way that's unethical for their own (likely selfish or at least self-centered) reasons.
