I think I will be in some kind of therapy for the rest of my life. Maybe not weekly at some point.

Specifically with current T's:

Psychodynamic T-- If he retires or dies that is the end of therapy with him. Right now I only talk to him on the phone once ever 2 weeks for about 15 min. Not truly therapy anymore, just support.

CBT T-- I'll see him until I get another job and move once more. It is not likely or workable to see this particular T by phone. If therapy ends with him I may go back to the psychodynamic route.

My worry is that psychodynamic can go on and on Woody Allen style and never lead anywhere. CBT therapy has the opposite problem of not being very "deep". I'm in a conundrum
