My therapist has learned to never mention reducing sessions to me. I currently go 3 times a week (started for coping in early part of pandemic), sometimes 2, and intend to reduce to 2 soon. At times when I've considered reducing, even him saying something like, "did you want 2 or 3 next week?" could make me feel rejected, and I'll start crying. He'll sometimes say things like, "How do you want to handle next week?" which is fine. So I get it.
I know it's difficult to do. But I think you need to tell your T how it makes you feel. That you do want to attend weekly. And maybe to let her know that if you want more time in between, you'll be the one to ask for it. That until then, to just assume you want to come once a week. If you don't feel you can say it out loud, maybe you could write it down and hand it to her or let her know via email or text if she allows those.
