Thank you so much for your responses, Soup and Wikid, I honestly didn't think I'd get any so I'm really happy!

Those are some useful questions for sure! As I've found the Ts on this site -> http://www.counselling-directory.org.uk/ <- I already know a bit about their training, qualifications and experience, areas of (supposed) expertise, and the therapies they offer, but I should definitely ask how they plan to work with me! I don't want to pay £40 (roughly $62) per session with both of us sat wondering what to do..

Contact is also another good one.. I've never had that option before! Would it be too upfront to come out and ask 'Where do you stand with regard to touch?'!? T2 didn't touch clients, and T1 did touch me, and then stopped once I revealed something, which was really hurtful! Thankfully I only saw T1 a handful of times though.

I'm also really relieved you don't think I'm silly for needing a list..

Good luck with your new T too, Soup - I really hope he works out well for you!

Also, thanks for the welcome, Wikid! I have posted a few times previously, but had to stop visiting and take care of all my responsibilities in the 'real world' *sigh* Hopefully I can stay longer this time.. I need to get better!
