My super wonderful psychologist who I've been seeing for almost 2 years is retiring at the end of May.
I'm heartbroken. She felt like the mother I never had to me. I'm only going to have another 3 or 4 sessions with her. Fortunately the hospital has found me someone else to see, after she leaves. I really like the new person, but it won't be the same. splitimage

Oh gosh, I feel your pain
 I have 3 sessions left with my T of over 2 years. It hurts, it is painful. I completely understand the thought of a new person just not being the same. Take kind care of yourself

I'm so sorry you're losing her. I know what you're going through, I'm having my final session with my T this week. I've been in therapy for 1.5 years. It's really painful to say goodbye to someone who means that much to you. Take care

I'm sorry that sucks. T relationships are certainly special relationships, and they take time to build. Good luck with the new T!

I feel your pain and I agree it will never be the same despite the new person being nice.
My last session with my therapist is this week I'm not really ready to say goodbye.

I know your pain. I'm having my last session with my current T next week but I've been seeing both her and my new t for the last 4 weeks so the transition has been ok.

My T of 7 years retired in sept. All I can say is that you have to allow yourself to go through the stages of grief. It is the only way to heal. A new counselor should be able to help. But ultimately you have to work through it. We need to hold within us all that was was shared with this special person. We will always carry their words in our hearts and our minds. . Peace.
