No, my T has never hugged me. I don't know if she does that - she seems very professional, so I really don't think she'd do it routinely. She once touched my shoulder on the way out,, but that's been it. Maybe if I were really falling apart during the session she would, but I don't do that so I'm not sure how it would even come up. I definitely crave verbal reassurance from my T sometimes but for some reason the idea of physical reassurance seems more troubling to me. I think it would feel awkward and forced...but maybe someday it will happen and I'll prove myself wrong. In any case, it's not something I really crave at this point.
