Hi LadyBug,
I haven't been following your therapy process, so I don't know what happened or has been happening to get you to this point. I can certainly tell you are angry and frustrated, though.Speaking as a therapist trainee, I do hope you make an appointment for one last session, call, or at least write. I really appreciate feedback from clients when therapy ends about what their experience was like. I suppose it's due to being a trainee...I want to learn from each client. So having a final chance to talk about this is important to me. I always wonder what happened or what somebody was experiencing when they just stop coming. All I can do is speculate, and I'd rather hear it directly from the client.
And it might feel helpful to you to express some of your experience to your T. It can help with closure. It can also leave the door open if you ever decide you want to start therapy again with the same T.
