I recently did but it was because she retired. So not the same. In retrospect though, I can see that I’d sort of hit a wall with her therapeutically and that we weren’t doing quite as good work as we had been previously. I don’t think it’s because I am all sorted out but more that she was great but we’d gone as far as we could together.
I’m doing really different work in two very different kinds of therapy now and it’s cool and helpful. So I feel kind of grateful to my previous therapist for letting me go (I definitely did not feel ready to let her go!) because it’s freed me to try new things.
All this to say… if things are getting boring, stop. You can always go back or have less frequent check in sessions. You might find that freeing up the resources you’ve been putting into that therapy gives you an opportunity to explore something new.
