Talk w/new: therapist about your experience. The best you can do is learn from this. Many subtle feelings occur in a therapeutic relationship and it is likely that the therapist had your best interest in mind. Peace and good health.

It is natural to feel rejection when your therapist leaves. Now is the time to heal and to see if the new therapist is right for you. If you are not comfortable the please see another.

Discuss your feelings with your new therapist. Paradoxically, this is an opportunity for you to grow. Nobody lives forever, nobody works forever. Coping with irretrievable loss is part of the human condition. Anger comes from feelings of powerlessness, but you aren't powerless. Your old therapist didn't personally betray you. Learning to work through this & move on is a mark of maturity.
