I've been seeing my T for exactly 1.5 years today which is pretty much the entire time I've lived in Texas and been in grad school. T has been the most important person in my life during this time and I look forward to seeing her every week. I think I've only missed 7-8 sessions during this period of time, only when I'm out of town.
However, I will be graduating in just a couple of weeks and I'm currently applying to jobs back home so I will most likely leave Texas within the next 1-2 months. This means my sessions left with T are very limited but without a definitive moving date, I really don't know how many I have left.
I've been dreading my last couple of sessions for about a year now and the realization that I may only have one more month with T is killing me. I've told her that I'm going to have a hard time when our relationship is over but I don't think I've done a good job fully expressing the pain and sadness I already feel and will likely feel even more once I have to say goodbye.
Anyone have tips on the best way to really tell her how much I'm hurting over this? I'm generally not good at expressing my feelings and I tend to minimize them when talking to other people. I'm not sure exactly how T can help me work through this but I need her to know before I have to say goodbye.
Any advice on the best way to do this/what exactly to say?
