My personal view is that abandonment means no referral and no notice period. I'd say a month is a reasonable notice period - - it gives you time to process things emotionally, get closure, and set up an appointment with somebody else.

I completely agree with this.
My ex-T abandoned me. She terminated me with no warning and she didn't give me any closure sessions. She did give me referrals in the mail: the first 3 DBT Ts in a psychology today search. Not helpful. At first I questioned if I was actually abandoned. But everyone including current T said it was abandonment.
