Since the T ends the session, I see no issue with this, esp. since my anxiety is very high and I need closure (even temporary), and abrupt endings make me anxious. I don't know what group someone wants to put me in, but I feel as though both T and I have our boundaries in place. I leave when we are done, period.

It sounds like your T is individualizing to meet your needs, and that is good therapy! I am actually against categorizing.
