I've been with my T since last Fall, and I did not get him anything for Christmas last year. I think I had read somewhere you weren't supposed to get your therapist a gift, so I didn't really consider it. Plus, it would have been too much stress to think of what to get! Plus, he doesn't celebrate Christmas. Way too many reasons for me to just not deal with the issue. I don't think I'll do anything this year either. I think if I was going to get him something, for any occasion, it might be just a card, with a meaningful note I would write inside, about how much he has helped me or how much my life has changed because of what I had learned in therapy. Or if I was out walking somewhere and found an interesting rock or piece of driftwood or something, I might bring it to him. He has a lot of cool, "found" objects like that in his office.

Good luck on finding something.
