Wishingstar, please try to hold on, I know it's really really hard now, and that you feel confused and that you need someone to hold onto and it seems that neither Laurie or Anne is there..
I wish I could give you something that would help. I wish I knew more of what Laurie said to you, and how she said it.
If you can try not to get tied up in knots about this "manipulative" thing-- about thinking that Anne and Laurie are blaming you, and saying you're a bad person who isn't worth it.
You do need to get clarity from Anne about phone calls, and contact between sessions.
Didn't she say she would have a phone session from you, if you would pay for it? Maybe you need to do that, maybe you need to check some of this out with her--
Because Im hoping she'll be kinder and more affirming of you than you can be right now. You are a good person, you don't deserve to be abandoned.
So sorry this is so hard,
Jost
