If you do want to thank your old psychiatrist, have you considered sending him a greeting card via snail mail? A carefully chosen card can definitely be appropriate and appreciated. Then you need only add one to three sentences to the end. I've sent my psychiatrist a get well card in the past that he appreciated.
I don't have an address other than the clinic to snail mail a card to. I wonder if I can ask my current pdoc if he would pass along a thank you card to her as I'd been seeing her over 10 years? She is still there working part-time for now. The clinic is very small, it wouldn't be hard for him to do; her office is just next door to his. I didn't get a last appointment with the old pdoc due to hospitalization and lack closure there, just being able to say goodbye to her and thank her.
