Dinah,
It sounds as if you are in a similar place...conflicted about dependent/independent. And resisting giving up dependence. That's what my T saw as a hallmark of termination. Now that doesn't mean that therapy's end is in the immediate future. I expect that processing the termination will take at least a few months for me. Given how long you have seen your T, I would hazard a guess that it wouldn't be unreasonable to work on termination for close to a year. I hope that isn't depressing. I think there will be a lot for you to process. Your separating needing from needing your T is a good step, I think.
Good luck and keep posting. You always make me think...
