She doesn't have to hold my hand, hug me, or touch me in any way. Just having someone sit with you can be comforting. My next appointment is on Thursday. I sure hope she brings this topic up and I don't have to keep agonizing over it!

My T made it clear she doesn't touch during session (though she does hug me at the end of one), but she does come sit closer to me, and that is a comforting thing, too. I hope you can discuss your needs with your T - you CAN do it, you can say the words!
