Due to a long business trip, I haven’t been to therapy for three weeks (I normally go every week). My therapist knew about this and we had planned for it (i.e. pre-set up appointments in advance for after I return, etc). I went to a session the day before I left and he said closed the session by saying he would email me the following day with a worksheet that he had mentioned during our session as something that could be useful for me to use while I was away, and to email or set up a call with him if I had questions about it.
Long story short, I never heard anything from him, so I waited a week (I was super busy on my work trip) and then emailed him to ask if I could have a copy of the worksheet. He never replied. So, I emailed him AGAIN a week later as a follow up just quickly/politely asking for a copy of the worksheet and he still hasn’t replied AGAIN. It’s really strange to me. We haven’t emailed much in the past (only to occasionally re-verify appointment times and get copies of a lost billing statement,etc ) but whenever I have previously emailed he is VERY responsive. And he was the one who suggested sending the worksheet over email, not me, so it’s not like I’m asking him to do something he doesn’t want to do/isn’t comfortable doing.
I now just feel strange and awkward about the whole thing; we have an appointment scheduled for the day after tomorrow but I feel weird going after not seeing him for three weeks and him not responding to either or my emails/never sending the worksheet. Should I email to confirm the appointment? Should I just go? Should I not go? Is it possible that this is his way of terminating therapy without telling me? Feeling strange about the whole situation. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
