How I lost my therapist...well I was seeing him at my university's counselling center. I started in October of '03 and went all the way until May of '04. He was doing his pre-doctoral internship at the clinic so he was only supposed to be there for one year. He was at the clinic until July but I could only see him through the middle of May because that was when the semester ended and I wasn't going to be an enrolled student in the summer. I would have gladly taken summer school to stay with him, but that would have been waaaaay expensive therapy. :-)
I remember when I had to sign the form saying that I understood that I had to stop therapy in May. It was the most horrible thing. I felt like I was being made to sign my death certificate. He wasn't happy about it either. I know I was kind of a victim of the system.
I would have been able to go back to him this fall had he been a regular staff member. But he's doing his post-doc fellowship at a university that's much closer to his home. I'm glad he's not commuting anymore. That must have been tough. But I miss him so much.
