It helped that we ended on very good terms; I'm sure that makes a huge difference. One thing I've learned is there are other very good therapists for me to move on with.

I agree about leaving on good terms. That helps. My last t had to stop seeing me as I finished grad school and she was only allowed to see students at the time. This one just might retire or I might decide to stop therapy or I might move further.

I can't imagine finishing on bad terms. I never finish anything on bad terms with anyone as I am very non confrontational ( not always good thing). I am friends or at least on very good terms with all my exes. Lol so if i can do that I can certainly end nicely with therapists
