Kiya, I went through a similar situation with my old T, whom I felt very close and attached to. At first she said she wanted to get someone else involved, which felt bad. But then it turned out that this person would not work with the three of us or T, just me, and that was awful. It meant I had to stop seeing T and see a new one.

I think it's been for the best, because some of my symptoms freaked old T out, and she just didn't know how best to deal with me. New T is different, but she knows her stuff. I feel confident in her ability to handle my illness.

I still email old T from time to time. I miss her dearly, but I know she wants what's best for me.
