My T has 45 minute hours that start exactly on time and end exactly on time. Nothing prolongs them or makes them shorter. I've never seen a patient before me because my T has a room with T doors - one for coming, one for going. In the end of the session my T walks me to the door and his full attention is on me until I've left and closed the door behind me.

Just today we talked about what would happen if for some reason I would not see him anymore. (The context was that some time ago my T actually proposed stopping seeing me because I behaving truly terribly and he thought that seeing me doesn't help me). I asked whether he would stop caring about me just over night. He said that we've been together for so long (5 years) and worked so intensively and it would probably take him considerable amount of time to grieve the relationship we have, but that he would still stop seeing me if he thought that continuing wouldn't be for my benefit. It might be strange but that calmed me.
