I'm sorry you're having such a hard time, Petra. I know how difficult attachment can be, because I am so attached to my own therapist (the university one). I have tried to leave several times out of desperation because it has been too much, and I came very close a couple of weeks ago, but I went back and we worked it out. However, she listens to me, she doesn't suggest that I see someone else, she always tries to understand me and mostly succeeds, and is generally very warm and loving. As someone who has been emotionally shut down for most of my life, her unconditional love has been more therapeutic and healing for me than anything else. I think you deserve something like that as well, and it sounds like you need it. You won't heal those wounds with this therapist, by the sounds of it, and perhaps that means you need to move on. He has helped you as far as he is willing to go, and that's okay.

I understand that it can seem almost impossible to let go, though. It has been a very important relationship for you. I just think you deserve to find what you are looking for.
