This is my opinion and I understand it may not be a popular, but I think the dependency that was fostered seems pretty problematic. I think part of what is making the leave so painful was the dependency, not the leave in and of itself. I feel like that is on the therapist to manage and control, so the leaves aren’t traumatic.
