Perhaps it wasn't that you terminated with her too soon; rather, maybe you just weren't connecting with this particular therapist. Are you able to find someone else to work with? It sounds like you still have the need and the desire to work with a T-- but maybe not that T in particular. That's ok. Sometimes it takes more than one try to find someone you can establish a relationship with. Or sometimes you do have a relationship, but you've worked all you can with that person. That's what happened with my 1st T. We worked together consistently for about two years, then on and off for a little while after. Then we mutually decided to terminate, but I realized afterwards that in no way was I done with therapy-- I didn't feel as though I should go back with her though, I felt it was time to move on. Eventually I moved on to another T, but after only a couple of weeks, it really didn't work out. Then I found my current T

and it's been working out great for two years.
