I think I made more progress in therapy when my life was relatively calm and stable. It did seem odd, transitioning from taking my week's worth of crisis into the sessions, to just talking about my issues and self-care and small happenings in relationships. I had the fear my therapist would only pay attention to me if I was miserable, but she was equally engaged when I was feeling OK.
So.... I don't know what you want to get out of therapy, but you might talk with your therapist about what kind of work you could do with him now that you're pretty stable. One thing you said, that you felt a need to move away from him, might be fruitful for discussion also. Could it be an intimacy issue coming up?
