Re:Provisions in case of death

I am sorry to hear of your loss and experience. I am glad you posted here. I am surprised that you were not informed, especially considering that you were sending cheques to her each month and had been a long term client. Someone, somehow, should have notified you and arranged for you to discuss the death with an appropriate person.

I plan to take a break from therapy for a while with the intention of returning in a few months. Just need a break. I will discuss with my therapist what will happen if he becomes ill or dies during that time. I do have options for another therapist or two who work in another setting and know they will be available. However, I would certainly like to be notified if anything were to happen and not find out about it by accident.

Your grief is normal. We become attached at some level to the therapist, after all we share a lot of intimate things with he/she. Know that others understand your sense of loss and anger over this. I hope you find someone to talk it over with.
