That sounds like the last year or two of my therapy... Torn between clinging and wanting to leave.

If you are arriving late without knowing why, perhaps it has something to do with unconscious motivations. Dreaming, or art or any other kind of creative activity can help to clarify what the underlying motives are.

I found it was really important to listen to my dreams, to what my unconscious was telling me. I had very clear dreams about what was not working in my therapy, and when I found that my therapist was unable to address the issues I was raising, I understood that it was time to move on. I found the strength from that to make choices that so far have proved to be helpful.

Perhaps try and track your dreams for a few weeks, and do some amplification work around them. I can give you some hints on how to do that if you like. You might find it very helpful.
