I dont ...end...therapy. I schedule with my therapist when I have things to work on and I dont schedule with my therapist when I dont have issues to work on...
for example when I found myself to be suicidal, I called my therapist, gave her a brief run down of how I was feeling and asked her to call me to set up an appointment. She called me back and I worked with her until the suicidal thoughts stopped, then when I had a work related problem I called her and gave a brief rundown, asked for an appointment, she called back, and I worked with her until the work related PTSD issues were no longer a problem, when I was pregnant I knew I had to go off my meds so as a precaution I contacted her and worked with her through out my pregnancy, ......
my therapist and I never ...end....we just let the process work and evolve naturally.
