And I'm so stunned, so sad. Supposedly it was mutual, because I was 'beyond' her capabilities. But honestly, I never would have left on my own. She was safe. And now I'm never going to see her again.
What also hurts is that I was so pathetic in our last session. Crying, asking her not to go. And that's going to be her last impression of me - a crying, stupid fool.
She said I could email her if I want to, that she doesn't want to lose touch. But part of me feels like she's happy to be rid of me. I don't know. I'm rambling.
She was amazing, and now she's gone. She said that once I'm done with my new T, and if I have any more issues to work through, I'm welcome to come back. That doesn't make me feel a whole lot better, though.
I can't tell dh or anyone because I feel so weak and pathetic. I don't even know if I can tell new T. :( :( :(

I'm sorry you did not receive any replies. Your last few posts were confusing to me so therefore I did not reply ... what I mean by that, it seems you are talking about different therapists at different times.
I am sorry you will no longer see the therapist that you bonded with. That would feel like a punch in the stomach. Hopefully the new therapist will be able to provide more help.

Thanks for responding. Sorry to be confusing in earlier posts. Now that I'm down to one T it should be clearer. :/

Hello Moonshadow.
It is a gut wrench to move on. No doubt about it.
Sitting here on the outside I think your T did an amazing thing for you. One of the most caring of all things in therapyland. Instead of pretending or defending herself/himself the T said I can't go there. Harsh and painful to hear but the MOST caring and professional action.
Sounds like the new T is somehow connected to the old one ~ like old T knows new T and that new T is able to go to the places you need to go. You have a new guide in Therapy land.
My 10 cents worth.. see what she has to offer. You know lots about Tland already. That gut wrench is proof you know about Tland.See where this guide can take you

Just wanted to chime in -- I'm so sorry. I think your T did the right thing, the ethical thing, but it can be so very hard to let go.

I NEED to hear this. Thanks people. She's a good T, even if she can't be MY T.

that must have been so hard for you. i can only imagine how much it would hurt. i had the same problem with my T but she referred me to a psychiatrist and told me i am to see both of them. which is what i needed.
but if it is for your best needs, and she feels she can't help you at least it will be the best for you in the long run. i am sorry this happened.
