Thank you, @CANDC, for your welcome. While my therapist and I had a close relationship, I wouldn’t consider him a best friend or like a relative. Our therapeutic relationship was completely professional. Still, I can see what you mean. Even while professional and boundaried, a decade-long therapeutic relationship with a therapist who uses a relational, interpersonal approach is an intimate one. There is real and genuine grief for both of us.
Hugs from:
