Yes. It worked out well. We had reached the point where she could no longer help me. I had experienced the full range of her skills and I needed more. I didn't feel bad about it. It seemed logical to stop seeing a therapist who couldn't help me. Before I quit, though, I gave myself the gift of taking a break from therapy. I was exhausted with trying and needed to rest and think. After a few months, when I felt ready to work on my problems again, I resumed. I only went for about 3 more sessions before ending for good. It was just so much clearer to me that the therapist was unable to help.
Good luck, mcl.
