Hello stopdog-I'm sorry that you wish to have this thread closed. I wanted to take a minute to tell you that I have always had a deep respect for your comments, over the years. Anyway, in regards to your original point, I have only had one therapist who left due to leaving the state. I did not receive a letter from them. We did discuss it, my feelings about her leaving, during the sessions. I'm not sure how I would feel about getting such a letter though.
