The benefit to establishing a final session - just one more - would be to say good-bye with as much love as possible. If you leave this way,without ever going back, it will take a while to let the last year go and remember all the good years you had with her. I'm sad that your therapy relationship has unraveled and I guess I'm hoping that there is enough connection left for that important last session.
And I think you are wise to end now. It is hurting not helping. So leaving her, before she can leave you, might be helpful. It speaks to your self-knowledge and your ability to care for yourself and protect yourself, things you probably worked on with her.
I just hear you getting more and more angry. I would too - but it still makes me sad. It makes me think of my divorce, in more ways than one.
I wish I know what else to say. You've done an amazing job of hanging in there. At least you know that.
