Hi TG,
I've been in touch via email. At first substantial emails every week or so, then gradually less often. Now I send brief emails once every few months. He seems to respond to every other email. I sometimes wonder if that is on purpose. :) At first he gave full responses, and now they're very brief. In general he's been pretty good at distance communication. When I've talked to him on the phone (before during regular therapy, and once after he left) he was pretty good. I felt the connection.
I guess my thoughts are that therapy hasn't been going the way I want it to in person anyway. I've *really* looked for a new T, and haven't had luck. And I think therapy over the phone with someone I want to be doing therapy with is better than therapy in person with someone I'm lukewarm about.
Thanks a lot for your impressions and your thoughts. It does help.
