Thank you Tamar. I was wondering about you - you were missing in action for some time. !! I hope you had a good holiday.

I am going to try to tell her. Maybe mildly. She really deserves that.

And maybe I will write her a card.

It felt good that she was little emotional. I had thought of her almost like steel like with no emotions. Maybe that would really help.

Thanks.

> Are you a bit afraid of her response? It's true that therapists are not always forthcoming about their own feelings. I told my therapist in our final session that I would miss him. He suggested that clients sometimes want to know how their therapists feel about the termination and I said I did want to know. So he told me he'd enjoyed our work together and that he would miss it. It was good to hear. I can imagine your therapist telling you something similar.
