I definitely thank him sometimes (and not always at the end of a session), like when he has been really helpful or shared with me or given a lot of himself. Or self-disclosed some meaningful part of his life that helps me grapple with mine. I appreciate his efforts, empathy, warmth, and value in my life, and I do want him to know it is sooooo appreciated. Sometimes when I thank him, he says, "thank you. And we can get into these back and forth thank you exchanges, lol. Sometimes he thanks me for revealing myself to him, for trusting him enough to be vulnerable with him. Hmmmm, we actually thank each other quite a bit.

Good question, I'm curious what others have to say. Riptide, do you thank your T?
