Michmich,
I'm afraid I don't know enough to help you out to any degree. I know the troubles you mentioned you were having, and I assume that this is related to that issue.
All that I can think of, at least right now, is to suggest that you know the rules as well as you can. Know when you should, and are permitted to call your therapist. (I'm assuming that you will be assigned another therapist.) My therapist told me that she wouldn't get rid of me, because I'm working hard. I guess that taught me quite clearly that there are two people who are supposed to be working in a theraputic relationship; my therapist, and to an even greater degree, me. It is really hard work.
I'm not suggesting that you aren't working hard. I'm suggesting that perhaps your therapist didn't know you were working hard.
I guess that's a few things that are important:Know the rules,
Follow the rules,
Expect the help you deserve from your providers,
Work hard,
Expect your therapist to work hard,
Always have a goal in sight,
Keep working toward that goal,
When you meet that goal, set another.
This may or may not help, but I hope it does.
Dee.

<<What does this mean? If you want to explain, anyway... But, it doesn't sound good. To me, it sounds like maybe she was doing somethign wrong. But, I could be wrong. If you want to expalin, feel free. If not, that's ok too.
But, is it possible to find a different therapist? You can always start again. I know it is hard, but I'm sure it will be worthwhile. And whatever the reason for the termination just keep in mind that sometimes therapy is tough. But, the end result is always better!
Good luck, Karen
