On Quitting Therapy


Ready or Not...

...Here you come, and yet your therapist may have another idea.  And so it goes with long-loved shrinks who make you question whether they're only after your dime or, in fact, committed to resolving your unresolved history.  Unless, of course, you move across the country and the break-up is inevitable, and then in your last two sessions - as you both prepare for your goodbyes - you find her (or him) casually dabbing the corner of her (or his) glassy, semi-teary eye (the first ounce of "real" emotion you've seen in ten years - hooray!), and - after that - you spend way more time missing her (or him) than you ever expected.  Enjoy!
