this sounds like a very empowered approach to dealing with a harmful therapy experience and if i was to ever return to T to process the things that had happened, this is the way i would prefer to do it...get what i need in a few sessions and move on. similar to you, i have no desire to get stuck into a long term therapy relationship again.
for this to work though, i think that a client would definilty have to be in a place where they felt strong enough and not vulnerable so they would not have to rely heavily on the T for emotional support.
