Have you considered just stretching out your sessions a bit to see how it goes? That's kind of where my T and I started. I went from around once a week to 10 days or so, and then when that seemed okay I moved to more around two weeks, etc. It gave me some space to really see where I stood in my ability to manage my emotions and daily life without that support without the end being in any way abrupt.
I remember one time we tried that and it was clear I wasn't ready yet, so we simply went back to our regularly scheduled programming. Down the road we tried it again, etc. until the time finally felt right.
