So it finally happened. My counsellor of 13 months has ended sessions with immediate effect because she is seriously ill.

Like everyone, we think we have all the time in the world, but we never know what's round the corner. I thought she would always be there and suddenly she isn't. It's another loss in a long line of losses.

Logically, I know why the ethical boundaries are there, to protect both client and therapist. But emotionally, it sucks. You can't help who you like and who you care about. It's not easy to just switch off like she never existed. It might seem odd to people that I have been so badly affected by her news, but I am in bits, knowing I will probably never see or speak to her again.
