I'm a little late with this, but I thought I'd throw in my 2 cents. You probably know that I terminated (involuntarily) with a T last year. I immediately started working with another T, but I found that it didn't really work for me. It was good to have someone to cry to, but after a few months I quit. Probably just because she was so much not my old T, which is what I really wanted her to be.
After I took a short break, I started over again looking for a new T, this time taking my time, and thinking carefully about what I wanted to work on and how. I now have a T who is a much better fit, and I'm ready to be back at work in therapy.
So, I guess I would say that my lesson is that I needed a transition T, to whom I had no real committment. I couldn't really jump into big time therapy with anyone else after losing my beloved T.
Don't know if that helps, but I wish you much luck . I hope you'll feel a sense of resolution and can have a good goodbye with your T.
