Does anyone have insight into how to handle an evolving/changing therapeutic relationship? I've worked with my T in different capacities (med psychiatrist, fill-in therapist, then full-time trauma therapist) for 16 years. In the past year, I've made incredible progress and I find our sessions are more and more discussions instead of the traditional somatic processing we've done. I'm okay with this but was wondering what other people's experience has been and how you know when the intensive work is coming to a close. I have gone from being scared to talk to her to being able to call her on BS when I see it. There are few things I would hesitate discussing with her. It's feeling like the beginning of the end - in a good way - if you know what I mean.
