I terminated today with a T I have had for only 12 weeks. I was in a program that ran for 12 weeks and I had group and an individual therapist.
I let myself get too close once again. I am really going to miss my appts with her. She challenged me and I really respected her. Why can't I find a T like that on my own.
Sorry, my thoughts are all over the place right now. I guess I just don't know if I want to get attached to another therapist again ... it's so damn hard to let go. :(Maxime

I know how it feels to be too attached to a T. It's hard to let go, I am the greatest example of that. I couldn't let go of my T and so I stayed with her for over 11 years only to have it end in a bad way. You have to take chances once in a while in order to grow. My T would tell me, No pain, No gain. I guess as hard as it is, it's true.
Could you continue seeing your T if you wanted too?
Listen to your heart. It will guide you.

Thank you so much for responding. :)
I can't see her because she works at a hospital. I was part of a DBT group and that's why I got to see her. I haven't had much luck with Ts and wouldn't you know,we got along really well and she made me work!
I can't imagine staying 11 years with a T! I am sorry it ended badly.
