She thanked me for my congrats and expressed her intention to say a little prayer for me every time I crossed her mind, and asked me to do the same for her.

Is it weird that I'm not sad and weepy? Oh, well, I've been weird all my life, no sense changing now!
No, I don't think it is weird. I would be sad if my T said that he was about to retire, but that's just me. Are you planning to look for another therapist?

Also, if this is not too personal a question (in which case just ignore it) : that prayer thing - is your T in any way faith based, or did the comment come out of the blue?
