Any advice on how to terminate?
Hello Alexis, welcome to Psych Central. You can send an email or write a letter. Maybe you could let the office manager know instead if there is one. I think in this instance that you are right to terminate as it is couples counseling and you don't need that sort of transference as an added issue. Good luck!
