When therapeutic relationships end and grief feels forbidden

My therapist moved across the country after three years of seeing me twice a week and I feel like I lost a parent, but I'm embarrassed to be this devastated over a 'professional relationship.'

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Healing relationships create genuine attachment, but their professional nature makes mourning their loss feel shameful and inappropriate.
