My therapist terminated our treatment

Thank you very much.
My therapist did not give me a time frame, but rather sent me a message after our second to the last visit that she did not have the experience to treat me, which I now accept and understand. I was simply upset by the timing. I did note that she suggested I see a psychologist and I will contact someone at the phone number she provided. I currently have Home Health coming out to see me for PT, nutrition, RN and also a social worker came out. I discussed the therapy issue with her and she found it odd that my therapist would terminate our relationship especially since I had found it so helpful, She suggested I ask my therapist if there were other reasons why she was terminating the relationship, so I did ask her the question. This caused her obvious discomfort, I could tell this by her body language etc because we were doing a video visit for the second time. Usually we just spoke on the phone. In any event, I will take a break and move on when I am ready to do so. I have trust issues, and I had placed a lot of trust in the relationship I had with this therapist and now I have to start over again. I understand it is a process and in the long run everything will turn out the way it is supposed to.
In all honesty, I did call her out regarding her credentials, and she did not like that at all. But, it's all good and I will move on. Thank you very much for your support in this matter,

@frances007 This is a good plan. Since your former therapist provided a referral source that she thought would suit you then that's a good place to start.

When you call and make that appointment will you let me know? Mental health appointments seem so difficult to make these days with so much more mental health needs these days so I'm hopeful that you will get in to see the psychologist soon.
