I had a couple of final sessions with my exT; she asked me not to bring up any new stuff (not that I would have anyway), and she summarised what she thought were the most important changes that had happened since I started coming to see her. I had very little to say, but it was interesting to hear her thoughts on the subject. It was not the end of a long therapy - about 20 sessions over a period of 8 months. And she said that I could always choose to come back if I wanted to, and then we shook hands (which we had not done since the first session).
