Being considered for discharge can feel like rejection, but indicates that you are recovering. The therapists goal is to help you become independant of them. There are cases where oversight keeps a patient safe from the therapist. The relationships in therapy are genuine. A therapist can become engaged in a way that hinders timely withdrawal.
Counter transference describes a pattern where the therapist developes a dependancy on the patient.
Someone in the organization your therapist is involved with is exercising diligence.
You say things have changed and maybe you should be encouraged venture into non-professional relationships. Then again, it might be too soon. You may need to continue with this therapy.
You are probably the best person to figure this part out. Do you look forward to therapy as a pleasant experience. Are you still solving problems that you feel like you don't have the skills to resolve.
I really like your protectiveness of your therapist, evident in later posts.
It sounds as though you have a great therapist who has truely helped you. Congratulations on your progress!
