Correct. I am thinking specifically of cases where the T imposes termination on the client, rather than the a scenario where the T is no longer able to practice. Seems to me the dynamic is quite different, with possible implications of rejection and shame in the case of an imposed or forced termination.

It seems that much of what is written in the literature and ethics codes about termination and abandonment assumes that what constitutes abandonment should be defined by the biz. For example, if your T gives you some referrals, it cannot be considered abandonment. Or if they grant you a final closure session, it's not abandonment.
