Subject: When you leave therapy
Hello all
Just wondered about others experiences on this topic.
I've been having therapy since February (CBT) and in the middle of this I've had therapy of a different kind (more organic, kind of "how do you feel?") therapy from April til July. Both my therapists think I'm ready to be discharged. The thought really scares me! I have become fond of my second therapist and like seeing her, she's helped me deeply and I wouldnt be so much better without her. This isn't me coveting a relationship of any kind with her, I'm a teacher myself and know the importance of professional distance, it's purely on a therapist/patient level. She says I can go back whenever I want, and have to contact her in a month, but realistically, I dont think I need it that badly am just worried about coping alone, especially as my first therapist is discharging me after my appointment next month.
I just wonder if anyone has ever felt this way leaving therapy, and how they dealt with it?
