My T is pretty relaxed about the time. I never look at the clock and let him manage all that. I let him wind the session down gracefully. He never says time is up or anything like that. I understand through his body language that things are winding down. If I don't get a clue, sometimes he stands up from the couch, or will walk over to his desk to get his appointment book. Meanwhile, sunny remains seated on the couch... We're both pretty loose about the time, and he always runs late, both with me and usually with whatever client comes before me.
