I think your assessment is pretty much accurate to this point.


This is not the case however for me. I do not want to explore touch safe or otherwise with my T. I totally agree that "in my situation" crossing the no touch boundary in therapy would be harmful and counter productive at this point.

I want to reduce my sensativity, anxiety, and mental noise associated with touch. Talk therapy has helped, but not with this particular aspect of this issue. My ideas involve the use of safe touch OUTSIDE of therapy. I would them PROCESS what I experienced in my talk therapy.

Simcha... I did not find anything you wrote offensive. I agree I need to look at ALL reasons for wanting this. Whether I like to admit them or not. Thanks
