Hello lovely peeps!

Hope you are having good day. On Tuesday this week I saw my therapist to whom I go for 1 year now. I need somebody who can see me weekly at the moment and unfortunately she canīt provide that so I am terminating.
I liked working with her and I will miss her. She offered to see me one more time next Tuesday but I have no idea what we could talk about?

I mean we both know it is the end of it. We already reflected on our work this week and I canīt think about anything else to talk about... Do you have any ideas what could be good for the final session. She kept asking me if there is anything I need to say or if I need to hear something and I canīt think of anything.

I would be happy to hear any suggestions or your experiences

Thank you

Maybe she just wants to give you another chance to think about this and discuss anything that comes up between your last session and your next. I would definitely encourage you to go, even if it's just to say a final goodbye.

I would not bother going. It would seem like a disappointing waste to me.

Are you going to seek another t who can see you weekly? Its up to you, would it be a closure session? Theres really not much to say, as far as bringing up any new issues or working on anything, but , I would go just to say goodbye and close out the therapy chapter, kinda shoot the breeze therapeutically, if its not a financial burden.

Thank you all
I pay out of pocket and 1 session is quite a lot of money to just go and say bye. Iīm planing to send her a card by post in few weeks to just say thank you for all she helped me with.
So maybe that would do and I donīt need another session. I asked her if she can tell me things she did not tell me yet about me and she refused saying all has to come during a right time... So Iīm not getting anything new out of her either.
And sweepy yes I am going to see another T that can see me weekly probably from next week. She is a body therapist so that is going to be interesting haha.

Good luck in your therapies !

Could you call her and ask for a shorter session? I believe fully in making sure you have that final closure, so would it be better to schedule and pay for a 15 minute appointment rather than a full one?

I agree with Hazel. I can't help but think you'd benefit from a goodbye somehow.
