LG, I don't know that I have anything useful to offer in terms of how you can deal with this. But I wanted to let you know how much your situation touches me. In my experience, anger seems to come from hurt and fear, and certainly you have plenty of reasons to feel fearful after leaving your beloved therapist who has been such a support to you.
I know that when my T left me, I was very angry, and under that anger, I think was a lot of hurt that he would do that to me. That my pain at losing him was worth whatever he was gaining by moving away. And fear that I'd lose everything I'd gained when he left. I still feel a lot of that anger, and hurt and fear, but as I find myself coping without him, it gets slightly easier all the time.
I think one of the most painful things about your situation is the uncertainty about whether you'll work with this person in the future. I can only sympathize about how difficult that must be. I'm so sorry this isn't easier, or at least more clear.
((((LG))))
