Thanks for the book suggestion. I have to keep reminding myself that IM not terminating rather I am trying to go less frequently. Right now im going once a week and Im going to back off to only going when I need her. This is hard for me because Im so used to a set schedule. When she is telling me that Im almost ready to leave her..she doesnt mean permanently, she means to come when i need to rather than at a scheduled time. It is just hard for me to back down because I dont want to loose this connection that I have with her...its so frustrating and I DONT KNOW HOW TO TALK TO HER about it...im sure that this will take more than one session to discuss. I am on her books through december so im thinking that after that...I will be backing off.....its nice to know that i can come back..its not like she is banning me from coming to her...
Would it be wrong of me to ask her if i can hold onto something of hers to have while out of therapy...or is that pushing my luck. I have heard of people doing this so that they feel like they are taking the therapist with them...I dont know what to ask for...
