It sounds like progress! If so, congratulations!

Generally this is the goal therapy and is something your T (and you) should see as great progress. I think you should feel good about it, unless of course there are other feelings involved like discomfort or anxiety or anything else.
But if the only difference is that when a problem arises you no longer feel the need to reach out to T, then that is great. It seems only natural you might feel like you are pulling away in session, since you have less that you "need" to talk about.
