I think I now have a better understanding of why my T has asked me not to email her. Her KEY objection is this:
When I send an email, it's like launching a missile: fire and forget. It gives me the feeling that I have dealt with the problem when in fact I've done no such thing. The "energy" is wasted. T wants me to bring that energy to her office.

There is still satisfaction from my knowing that she is reading what I feel about the session, for what I write is usually about the session. I seem to think she has to know right away!! It's urgent! I have to learn that it isn't urgent. I think what helped this session is that I thought about and told her what I felt before I left, when we had time to resolve it. Last week I didn't do that so I had to send her a rude email. Or thought I had to, anyway.

But I do think T is a bit unworldy sometimes. Energy leaks. Better to dump it in cyberspace than on family, friends and work.
A good compromise is to write it down and read it out later.
