I'm not sure I'm able to answer your question re:termination ideas succinctly, but I'll try. First of all, I'm in treatment with a psychodynamic therapist, so time isn't an issue (i.e. she isn't trying to figure it all out in X number of sessions).
But I would hope she would bring up the issue long before she thinks it should happen ... let's say a year. And gradually reduce the frequency of the sessions until I say "enough". Right now, I can't imagine when that time would come (it's only been 18 months this go around) but it will be a bittersweet ending.
