I heard this therapist on the Shrink Rap Radio podcast the other day who wrote a book called, "[I'm Working On It In Therapy] (http://www.amazon.com/Im-Working-It-Therapy-Psychotherapy/dp/1632204487)". It's about how patients can get the most out of their psychotherapy but also goes a long way in answering your question.
tl;dr: The best thing you can do in therapy is to be open, engaged and willing to change i.e. commit to the process.
I’ve been going to group therapy and they differentiate the skills groups and the process groups, and to me the process groups is where most of the work happens. I think of processing as the self discovery and “why” part of healing. But for it to work you kind of have to be proactive and form an authentic connection with your therapist (or group). I totally recommend this book, as a guide on what to do in therapy.
