I have to agree with you on this one. I had to put my 15 year old dog down a few months ago. I cried my eyes out all that day and grieved for days after. I still miss him so much. I think she was so wrong to make you pay for the group session you missed for this. My T would NEVER do that to me. I've had last min. things come up with my kids that made it impossible for me to leave them and she never charged me. She knows that in real life THINGS ARE GOING TO COME UP!!! I'd feel just like you do about wanting to quit but then my question would be, would I be better off without her or with her. To me your dog comes in first place. True out beloved pets have to pass from this life and we have to go on. It is like losing a child in a lot of ways. Though I don't think as hard over all.
I wish you the best to make your decision. Maybe it would be best to make your decision when you have calmed down a bit. I have a tendancy to get mad at my T once in a while and tell her I'm not coming back. After a few days or a few weeks at the most I realize I need her and I get pissed off at myself for being needy. It's hard to understand.
Let me know what you decide to do. I think you had every right to miss group!!!!!! AND she had no right to make you pay. MONEY is a touchy subject. Like we rent a friend in therapy. It feels that way at times.Lu
