Ooh, thinking about it, I do have one experience of termination. My previous T announced she was leaving and we had eight sessions left. I made her a present- sewed her something. I planned the design and chose the material and the threads and stitched it over many hours and days and weeks. Looking back, I think that was more for me than for her. With each stitch I was processing our therapy and her leaving. When I was finished, we were finished.
The other thing I did was bought loads of books about termination, because I tend to run to books for everything. I can't remember reading anything particularly useful though...
