Glad your T accepts gifts!
This is just a suggestion, but it might help to see another therapist for those 10 weeks.
I am currently seeing two therapists at the same time, and T#1 knows nothing about it. T#2 has a different therapepeutic style (more CBT and goal-oriented vs T#1's psychodynamic psychotherapy). It's been really interesting experiencing a different type of therapy. Two sessions a week is a bit much, so I'll need to figure out a long term plan eventually
