I'm sorry he's being so rigid in all this.
It would have been kinder to you in many ways if he'd supported you in finding another therapist.
I understand that it's far from an ideal situation, and there is no good way of handling it, but...he's dropped the ball, and it's OK to be angry.

I have other providers. I've been doing art therapy every other week for a few months and I have a prescriber that I do a therapy session with about once a month. I don't really feel like I have the same type of relationship with them though. He said he was going to scour Psychology Today and see if he can find anyone who looks promising, but I doubt he'll have time to actually do that.
We're meeting today and then we have 3 sessions scheduled next week. We might be able to meet on the 30th, but it would be in completely empty room with just two chairs. I don't know that would feel okay to me.
I don't want to hear about all the clients he's ending with and the friends he's saying goodbye to anymore. I'm sure that's difficult and I'm sorry that he's stressed out, and I feel selfish for saying this, but this is difficult for me too. I'm feeling like a burden right now. It's not how I want to end this and I'm already second guessing if our relationship was really real like he says or he's just telling me what I want to hear.
