Indeed, very true and something I do a lot, but don't always understand when others do it!

The question about emailing w/ therapists is interesting as I've had one who would never respond and three others who did/do (including my current T). I write often wanting a response... but there is this part of me that feels guilty as what if all of her clients were to write - she'd need to spend a couple of hours/day responding. Too, I email in part for connection, always after sessions to express my feelings, sometimes in between sessions about something going on or saying that we should talk about something next session. But is this good for me? I think up to a certain point it is, but then perhaps it should be less as time goes on and we move forward in our work? Of course during more "crisis" periods perhaps more emails. But, should we have the goal in mind of emailing less "one day" and when is this "one day"?
Thanks for this!
