Dinah,
I support you 100%. You said something in an earlier post that things have eroded over the last nine months w/your T. Can you think of it as change, instead of eroding? It's always a developing relationship and when you've been in therapy as long as you have (me too!), the relationship is bound to ebb and flow. I know this is more drastic, but... for example, I don't even remember how many years ago it was, but my T's husband died and it took us a LONG time to get back to a comfortable spot because of all the uncertainty and changes it generated. Many would have suggested that I change Ts at the time because things weren't always right, but I wouldn't, or couldn't, and I ended up learning a lot from the experience. It was painful, yet, but I'm still glad I stuck around.
Really what I'm saying is that you know what is best for you, and changing your mind--even a few times--is o.k. It's part of the process.
Take care, and hug that great son of yours,
antigua
