it is amazing what the right therapist with the right client can do.

Leaving therapy is so bittersweet. Sadness is the pervasive emotion for me too. It's just grief - but the grief arises from the fullness of the experience, not the ending of it.

It's hard to explain.

However, I was with my old therapist for close to nine years. It was a long long journey.

There are reminders of him strewn all through my life.

I do think it is important that you own your part of the therapy's success as well. You had the courage to change.

Good luck today.
