Maybe when you are feeling low about her email response think of this and how she held your hand and was there for you. Many therapists won't even do this. My therapist never touches me by holding my hand, a hug, or even a pat on the back - nothing, even though she knows I crave it because I think shes worried it will make me feel even more for her than I do attachment and dependancy wise. I don't think dependancy from clients seems to be as feared in the usa than it is here in the uk but I could be wrong.
