Okay, wow that's a biggee.'
Did she actually say "I feel like I'm never going to be as emotionally connected". For me that is termination-worthy because it implies she is trying but can't or won't.
However, if she said "I'm never going to be as emotionally connected" then that's pretty close, though blunt and harsh, IMO to a statement of fact.
Slightly different versions, but wholly different meanings.
It kind of sounds as though she is just grasping about.
My therapist has told me that the emotional experience of therapy is dramatically different for him than it is for me. I think that's true. It was one of the roughest things to accept for me. What I feel in therapy and about therapy is solely my experience.
But if she indicated she was trying and failing, then I would politely (or not so) terminate.
Seldom.
