If you’ve ever taken a break from your T, how did you know?

I see two T’s-my long term talk T, and a trauma/art T. I’ve been making a lot of strides in trauma therapy, but sort of been maybe just going through the motions w my regular T? I don’t know.

I also am not sure if it’s in reaction to a text my T sent today. She has always been horrible w time management in general, and I’m the last client of the day. Today she let me know that she has to move our session back 15 minutes, and we have to end exactly at the 50 minute mark bc she needs to prioritize family life. We’ve always done 60 minutes.

I am maybe a little angry at her. I feel like I’m getting the shaft bc I see her last. She runs her clients back to back, so if she is running late, it’ll be me who suffers. Which is sort of what it feels like. I do not begrudge her her family time. She has small kids, I understand.

I have free therapy until the first of the year, so I feel like I should take that advantage and not quit, which is sort of what I feel like doing. I just can’t tell if it’s bc of my reaction to the session times, or i need a break from seeing her? She’s been my T for 7 years. I don’t even know how I would feel not being able to talk to her.
