Good for you for planning to bring it up!
You might consider bringing in your post (or even an edited version of it). I think that truly good T's can help a client work through and figure out if they would do better w/ a different T. AND help them match up with a different T that would be good for them if necessary.
Also, I must add...if your T is already thinking abt retirement, how old is her batty mother!?!? It just sorta makes me laugh (and worry about how well everything is filed!)
Best,
EE> I'm going to try to bring these issues up (gulp). Avoidant-me is not happy, but I keep seeing the good stuff that's happened with my T in our short time already. And if her health does not have a good prognosis, that will be another thing entirely. (I don't want you to be my therapist because you're sick?? sounds really heartless to me.) She has mentioned grooming someone to take over her practice when she eventually retires, because i've brought up my abanondment issues before - she's older like I say... maybe I should ask to meet this person.
