Have you been terminated by your T

Not as such. The second woman retired suddenly, after saying she had no plans to retire, because of some illness/injury of her 90+ yr old husband and him needing more full-time care. I never fully understood the relation of her having a part time therapy office with interfering with caring for her husband because she has kept up with her other career which is home based but she has a studio as well, but she is not licensed in the state where she lives and said the short drive across the river was too much. I did not bother questioning it. If someone is going to close their practice, it doesn't really matter the reason why to me. I found the emphasis on licensed as being misplaced - but that is more because I find their belief that licenses mean anything in their profession amusing at best.

I was terminated by a former p-doc who I'd been seeing over a year and generally liked. She gave a month's notice that she was leaving the practice (where ex-T and ex-MC also worked) to go to a location where she could only meet with people who were low-income, so I couldn't follow her there. I think I found out via letter, just because of the timing. It hurt at the time (a few years ago), but I actually like the p-doc I found to replace her much better, so it worked out.

8 years ago i was terminated from my first pastoral therapist out of the blue. I ran away and she used that to terminate me it was very traumatic for me i got so close to her i kinda had a motherly figer in my life. I came close last year at the mental health clinic because they saw i was not helping myself not going to day program and relapsing alcohol My treatment team where feeling like they where all doing the work i was not. I got sober 14 months ago and im putting effort into everything going to all the programs at day and being honest all the time. Now i feel im not at risk for my file being terminated now, it was very painful however looking back i was not putting a good effort in to what brought me into therapy. Sorry for the long post and going on about me. Hugs

no and I hope not!

seems like they are worried about liability and possible lawsuits

I had co-therapists so hostile and unhinged they stopped even the pretense of the service of group therapy. But I was the one to unplug the socket.

No termination here. My T says we will end therapy when I decide I am ready to end therapy.

Ghosted by a T who used the excuse of leaving...but then returned and cheesily dodged me. So yes.

I had one ending that was mutually agreed upon. Then I made contact again as various realizations hit. She would have none of it and refused further contact. What mattered to her was maintaining the appearance of authority and credibility. She ended up behaving like a big baby when confronted with failure.

I assume many of the loony and/or sudden terminations inflicted by therapists are the result of them facing failure and the dissolution of their savior fantasies. Worst thing a client can do, seemingly, is tell the truth about how useless therapy is for them... or worse, destructive. Get ready for drama and histrionics, or a cold hard adios.

I coped by developing my feeble critical thinking skills and then deconstructing my experience and therapy in general. Like everyone else, I was aggressively pushed toward a new therapist, who would make it all better, which was total excrement. Power to the people!

Sadly mine said that very thing to me more than once
