I always know when my T is trying to tie up the session because I either know the time or his secretary beeps his phone warning T that the next client has showed up for their appt. So the ending a lot of times are kinda awkward because usually the session is so intense, so he does his best to end things calmly with positive talk.
Lately we have talked a little about Bob Newhart show, and how he ends sessions with, "Times up" and he rises out of his chair.
When I noticed our session went over, I saw my T noticing that, and before he could wrap things up, I sat up in my chair, he knew I knew, and then I said, Times Up! through my tears, but it was okay.
I have had enough for one session. We both had a nice laugh at the end.
