I think so too. It's easier to be the one that says goodbye. I'm sorry this happened to you.

It could be that your T is sad about you leaving and needs the closure too. I know my T was, even though he didn't show it that much. I guess because therapy is about the client, not about the therapist. And I was struggling so much with the ending. He hardly mentioned he was going to miss me until one of my last sessions.
Take care
