Terminophobic. I like that term. :)
Not that I like the feelings behind it.
I was recently really clingy and tearful about therapy, even though therapy was going pretty well. Daisy pointed out that I had just gone through a period of disruption and anxiety. Like a kid that may have fun at daycare, when Mommy came, I felt safe enough to feel all the things I hadn't really fully allowed myself to feel. Is it possible that since your therapist is home now, you have the safety to feel afraid about his leaving?
I think I'd have been a bit upset about his answer. Silly of me. If my therapist said that even when we aren't meeting regularly we'd still have a relationship, the "still have a relationship" would pass over me and the "aren't meeting regularly" would echo through my brain.
