I sent an email which he responded to (which is the norm), but I just feel differently about things with him now. I wonder if he's checked out already.

Its normal and ok to feel angry. Its just important that you express it and express it in a healthy, respectful way. I had a session a couple weeks ago where I was very angry at my T for leaving and I expressed this in session and to her. I think we were both surprised at how angry I was (I never thought I would get this angry with her, I also didn't plan on her leaving) but I was respectful. It really helped to get it out and to express my feelings. Most of the anger has faded now and that may happen with you. I am just really sad.
I feel different with my T as well and I felt like (at first) that she was already checking out of therapist mode. It turned out to be my projection I think. I think you should do what is best for you but just remember that this is your chance.
