My T suggested a LONG time ago that we find a group for survivors that I could go to. I FREAKED. I made him promise to never, ever, EVER bring it up again, and he never did. Fast forward many many months, and now I am looking for a group on my own, with T's help.
I think that it might be the same if T suggested massage therapy (or another type of touch therapy). I imagine I would balk at first, but maybe decide to try it when I came to it in my own time.
I actually did go for a couple of body work sessions this past winter, but the second one was SO triggering and scary that I haven't been back. Not because of the touch, but because of something the massage therapist said about my "energy". eeek.
