Since I am terminating with my T. on Monday, I have contacted some other therapists. I haven't had one say that they agreed that my sessions should have been spaced and most said the termination could have been handled better. My T. never said "I know how hard this will be so what will make it easier for you".

One potential T. I have been emailing with and she's the one who I met who has looser boundaries. I decided to email her that I am scared to death to develop transference again and maybe I'll just stop therapy for awhile. Or, do I just go straight to a psychodynamic T.

She has been great. She told me my T. did many things to intensify the transference. She said she would outline a plan to handle my transference and if it got too intense, then we would bring in an analyst. But, she feels she knows how to resolve my issues with current T. My T. now never shared a plan or anything - she would just say keep expressing my feelings and they will eventually work themselves out.

I can tell she really wants to help me and isn't scared of the transference.
