Sometimes the T would be OK with a side hug? or a pat on the arm? if you could talk to her about it (I know it's hard) maybe the two of you could agree on something.

aw thanks hun
I'm too scared to ask. she knows I wish she was my mum and that I feel attached to her and I think she would be afraid to hug me or whatever incase it made that worse really. Actually I am just remembering how a few months ago we did discuss something about wanting a hug and she said something like " you wouldnt want your therapist to hug you though would you?" and I said "yes" - but it didnt make any difference - she said something about how it just would increase dependancy and attachment ...I feel like crying as I type that because in my head all I can think of is that i'm not allowed to need anyone.
