Wow! That is complicated.

I don't have any advice for you, but am interested in hearing what others say, because I'll be in a situation soon where I may have two Ts...I'm moving and my current T has offered phone sessions for a while, but I'm supposed to find a local T as well.

You say that you've felt some distance from NYC T for a few months now, but later you say you could make progress with him? Am I reading that right? Seems like a contradiction...

Regardless, I'm sorry you're losing your local T. That must be hard...
