Maybe you feel like you no longer need counseling at all. Or perhaps you’ve just stopped seeing progress with your current one.

]]> 83396 15752 0 Tip Make sure you’re not dropping your therapist on a whim—like you read in a magazine that therapy is “out.”

]]> 83397 15753 0 Step Find alternatives If you plan to continue therapy with someone else, find a replacement before you drop your current counselor. Have a few sessions with the new therapist to make sure it’s a good fit.

]]> 83398 15754 0 Step Explain your decision Go to your counselor’s office and explain why you are terminating therapy.

]]> 83399 15755 0 Step Be open-minded If your shrink tries to convince you to continue therapy, listen to what he has to say. But beware that some unscrupulous therapists may try to convince you that you still need help simply because your weekly sessions are paying for their kid’s braces.

]]> 83400 15756 0 Step Consider wrap-up sessions Consider winding down slowly with a couple of wrap-up sessions. You’ve no doubt heard how important “closure” is in ending a relationship.

]]> 83401 15757 0 Tip If the session becomes adversarial, counter his arguments by responding to all comments with a monotone, “And how did that make you feel?”—even if such a response makes no sense.

]]> 83402 15758 0 Step Take up a pastime Smooth the transition by replacing your therapy with another pastime, like yoga, the theater, or volunteer work.

]]> 83403 15759 0 Step Don’t feel guilty If your mind is made up, refuse to let your therapist make you feel guilty about your decision. If that’s impossible, maybe you need some more therapy after all.

]]> 83404 15760 0 Fact The Greek physician Hippocrates believed depression was caused by an excess of black bile, which he saw as one of the four basic substances in the human body, along with yellow bile, phlegm, and blood.
