The problem with recurring dreams is that they won't stop until you have resolved the issue that is bringing that "anxiety" to the surface.
You seem to have issues with "helplessness", "feeling stuck", "shame/worth" and "indebtedness".
Obviously, yeah, you need to discuss this stuff with your therapist but in the meantime you can try journaling your dreams. Just the act of writing them down is helpful to kind of distill the common themes. One technique taught to me is to write out an ending to the dream that YOU WOULD LIKE TO HAVE.
You can try lucid dreaming, but it's very difficult. If you can't manage to control your dreams in a lucid manner then writing them down and composing an "alternative" ending might be an effective substitute.
Good luck and keep us posted.
