I really, really need to wave bye-bye to my T. Her schedule and mine rarely mesh well and I end up canceling every other appointment anyway because of it. (I don't have a 9 to 5 job and never know from one day to the next what my schedule will be.) Needless to say, it's very difficult to get anywhere when you only go once a month, and I didn't really go in with anything specific to work on anyway, just a sense of needing some help adjusting to where I find myself, both physically and emotionally, now.

She says things that make it clear to me we are completely disconnected and that her version of how I respond and mine totally don't gibe. She spends half the session talking about herself anyway....it's just never been a good fit, and I find bothering with it an increasing PITA.

My question is -- how does one detach oneself in such a situation? I guess question 1A is, is it wussy to do it over the phone? I kind of hate to waste $170 just to say "it's time for me to quit," but I don't know if it would be too rude just to leave a message on her machine or something saying I'm not coming back. I have done that in the past, but with somebody who was even a worse fit than this chick and who I only saw 2-3 times (I haven't had much luck since having to leave the best T I've ever had because we both moved).

Anybody got any ideas for not being jerky about this?
