I cannot imagine my current T - or at least the office aid - not calling to check on me. That said, since you actually ran out of session the situation might be handled differently.
Whatever the case, I would feel as you do. However, I think it would be a good idea (since you've been in therapy with her for a long time) to set up an appointment to discuss the situation.

I agree. But I’m so bad at saying goodbye and leaving in a good way. I have always just sneaked out the back and just left for good.
Also, I think going back would just “suck me into it“ again, making me feel as if I need her and can’t live independently without her.
