I hate changes that are out of my control. I think grief is a perfectly fine response to that. And anger.
Maybe you could come up with a worst case scenario plan? My therapist's life has, in general, been less stable than my own. A few times I've felt the therapeutic relationship has been threatened by changes in his life. When that happens, he usually indulges me by helping me plan what would happen *if*...
I always took the stance that I was committed to do what it took to keep the therapeutic relationship in place. It mattered more to me, I think, so it was up to me to take the lead, although he always cooperated.
What do you think is the worst case scenario as far as her plans? Is there anything you can do to mitigate the effects?
