PS: (as if I didn't say enough)

I also agree with everyone who said that T's leave it up to clients whether to leave or stick with therapy. One time I thought about quitting and I told my T. She told me that she would never, ever trap me. She said it's not ok to trap people with abuse... and that it's also not ok to trap someone with love. She said she would never trap me, not even with her love.

That helped me understand that, even though she may want to help me, she would never take the choice away from me whether I want to be helped or not. I'm free to come and go. I know I'm there because I want to be, not because she chases after me and tries to convince me to stay. That feels good to me
