I wish she wouldn't tell you she's coming to town. It's rather insensitive of her.
I think that despite the best of intentions at the time, this type of relationship might be hard to maintain once therapy ends. Well, I suppose that's true of most relationships. I can't tell you the number of dear friends who have dropped out of my life. I'm sure she didn't lie at the time. But like promising college friends that we'll stay in touch, the relationship changes with no regular contact.
Maybe this is an extra step on the grieving process?
How is the new and different sort of therapist working out? I know they aren't interchangeable, but is she at least being helpful with the grief?
