Also...Wasn't the issue over things you wrote in emails that led to the termination with your previous therapist? And now this one? I'm not saying it's you, but the medium--emails create a lot of misunderstanding and conflict for most people. As an experiment, maybe try not sending emails with whomever you end up with, but waiting for in person sessions.

Thats a good point, about the emails. I used to ask a coworker / friend to edit my emails before i sent them out. She would usually delete a sentence near the end, a "kicker". She'd say, you were fine, up til that point! But then i always went just a little too far and got my dig in. I would delete it per her advice and keep my job for a while longer
Self-sabotage is very hard to overcome. You are SO SURE you are doing the right thing! Maybe that sureness is one of its signs. When it truly is the right thing to do, you dont worry about it as much; you just calmly do it? Idk.
