In reply to Curiosity About Therapist/Ending Therapy, posted by Rigby on December 14, 2005, at 11:21:17

I've talked about ending my therapy at times with my therapist. She's always told me this; "When we're done telling each other everything there is to tell, we'll be through with therapy." Pretty broad statement, I know. But when everI think about leaving, I think about this statement and I know I'm not done talking with her about the things I struggle with. And I've been seeing her for almost 9 years!! She's told me some people need therapy in order to function in their life. I believe I need her to function the way I want too. I love having her in my mind.....
She said, "when we're done, you'll just know it!" And somehow I believe her.
I know whenever I start to think about termination it clouds up our work together, it's too painful for me to think about. Then she say's I'm not ready for that step.

Sorry to write a novel here, I'm sure that wasn't what you were after....
Good luck~
