And when he was getting his first shot of the vaccine a few weeks ago, he said, in response to my questions, that maybe a month after his second shot, he'd see what current infection rates are in our area, what other T's in the area are doing, and ask his wife what she's comfortable with (to my knowledge, she's not yet vaccine-eligible). So not making any guarantees. As frustrating as that can be in a way--it's been nearly a year since I've seen him in person--I'd rather him say he's not sure than make promises he may be unable to keep.
You're on a bit of a deadline due to your move. Any chance she'd be willing to meet you outside? I know it wouldn't be the same, but maybe it could help? Or is it partly about being in her office one last time? (Because I really miss my T's office, too--and the fact that he often meets me virtually from there can make it more difficult, in a way).

I think she said one that the practice doesn’t allow outside contact. But I’m trying just to accept things and I do feel positive about the new therapist who is probably more of what I need in a therapist. But the false promise things got to me a lot more then I realized after going through my past posts since May on here.
I do want to talk to her about it because I know I’ll regret it later, but I don’t want her to think I’m mad at her when we are finished. So it’s probably best to bring it up at the start of the session so we have time work through my feelings.
