YES! I do write long emails. My T says that she is okay with that because she knows that is how I get my innermost feelings out. She prints them out and puts them in my file.

She also said that it helps her see what is really going on with me. So many times I clam up in therapy and don't really say what I want to say.

I do worry that she will take email away at some point. I am trying to limit how many I send her. I guess I send 2-3 per week right now. I am working on just sending one per week.

She assures me that I am not annoying her and stop worrying about how often I send an email. She does respond with feedback if I ask her to.

She did ask me if I was wanting her to address everything I talk about in the email. I told her that was not necessary. I highlight the parts I want her to give feedback on. This is working good for us right now.

I agree with you that if my T should take email away from me at this critical point in my therapy, I would be devastated!! She said I am the only one who sends email, so it is okay for me to do as much as I need to do.
