Wow that sounds intense.

Y'know I think I'm glad my therapist doesn't deal with insurance at all. I can only collect because I have out-of-network benefits (he accepts no insurance), and I do all the paperwork. It actually makes it easier since he never has to deal with them directly. I'd worry about it too if he were dealing with them on my behalf. But just remember: he's got to tell them something, and it probably doesn't have anything to do with what he actually thinks is good for you. He just needs to keep them off your backs!

Can you afford to go out-of-network if he drops them? It might end up being less stressful if you can swing it financially.

Glad you could tell him you love him. I've never been able to say that to my therapist, though naturally I do. I think he's incredible. At least I managed to tell him that I'll miss him next week (he's out).

Wow, you touched on so many intense subjects! Sounds frightening but helpful.

Gotta get back to work (ugh).
