Well, there's a (legitimate) kind of therapy called maintenance therapy, which often consists of some contact every few months. It's basically for people who are done with therapy, but still need some kind of support to keep from relapsing.

Nothing wrong with it, it's a medical choice.

In fact, I rather think that I personally am now in maintenance therapy. I see my T every few months, email her when I feel like it. If there's an issue, I see her more.

I think that just gradually kind of happened -- my life got busy, therapy got less frequent.

But why should I give it up completely? There's plenty of good things in my life, and she is one of them. I'm not going to lose my relationship with her just because of some dogmatic "should."
