We had a plan to just decrease sessions and stop when it felt right. What I discovered is that I really didn't need to "wean" off of therapy, and honestly, I just cancelled my last appointment and never went back. We didn't have some big closure session or anything; it really wasn't necessary. He knew why I stopped. I was ready.

Thanks Artley, this is helpful for me.
