The thing is, if you feel you want/need closure, then you need to ask them for that. When I terminated with my T back in September, a couple weeks later, I asked if it would be possible to come back in and talk. He agreed, and I ended up deciding to continue seeing him (and am glad I did). But had I not explicitly asked to come in and talk to him, he likely would not have responded anymore to my emails after I terminated (in session). You mention how your T's had said in the past that you could have come back to see them in the future after you'd stopped. Sending them an email talking about the termination and hoping for a response is different from saying "I want another session" or "I want to resume therapy with you." They may still be completely open to that.


From things my T has said, if a client terminates, he likely wouldn't email afterward, unless it was them asking if they can come back in. (If it was a former client just sending an update on their life, he might reply with "thanks for the update, glad you're doing well" or something. But not respond therapeutically.)

So think about what you want. If you want closure (and it seems you do), then ask for an additional session.


Also, I'd be careful in also stopping other counseling and meds so abruptly...
