So in the future (hopefully a couple years from now), I won't have any scheduled appointments. When the need arises, I can go see her whenever I need to. So lets say a family member dies, then I would contact her and we'd set up some appointments. Or even lets say I start to really miss her and just need a check-in session. Then I could schedule an appointment to see her.

This sounds like the goal of therapy to me... Don't feel like you need to justify yourself or your T to those who don't get it, but it sounds to me like you are doing really good work and have come a long way since you started working with her. I understand that it's hard and scary at times, but you're doing great!
