So sorry this is happening to you. I go to a mental health clinic here in Canada thats free with our health care. I am not sure how it works where you are. Here there is no time limit, but it's very hard to get weekly therapy. I go every three weeks thats the norm. There is allot of pressure to make sure clients are making progress. I am going to share what happen to me last year and hope it helps you.
Last January my previous therapist announce he was retiring in May, so with that he was going to see me 3 more times and shut down my file. I tried to talk to him about getting a new therapist and wrote him a long letter why I needed a new therapist or counsellor. We both ended up fustrated. I eventually went to my Family doctor who intervened and the following session my therapist agreed I needed therapy still. Now I have a great female therapist and things are working out. It was tough and something that i hope to never go through again. Can you work with your family doctor, let them help you get a new therapist or counsellor? Hugs
