Alexandra, honey, I so sympathize. But I think you should reconsider. Sure you're hurt because of missing 2 weeks. Canceling a session with him will not really punish him, it will punish you.

Why? you ask. Because:
*You really like this T.
*The first time you saw him, you felt things were "right" and he was someone you could work with.
*He understands he can't talk to the others and is OK with that.
*You really like this T. (can't be said enough)

Therapy takes a long time. It's a shame your T has to go away for a month, but just think of having to start all over again with someone else. And didn't you say before he offered to do phone sessions with you in his absence? That isn't the same as face to face, but shows he realizes how important your work together is.

Please reconsider! From all you have written previously, I think this T sounds good.
