She still hasn't written. She's probably busy if she just got home yesterday or today.

I know all the arguments for and against e-therapy - it is one of my topics of interest and we covered all of that before deciding to do therapy this way, and I didn't really need to debate that again here right now. My feelings about missing my therapist when she has been away are the same regardless of the modality we use. I would not be able to work with her without using email, and she is the one I wanted to work with. I talked her into trying this, and it has worked out well for us. No, insurance doesn't cover the online sessions - I pay for those out of pocket and they are deductible on my taxes. It is a choice that I made and maybe it isn't a choice you would make, and that is perfectly fine, but that isn't relevant to this thread. If you want to discuss the pros and cons of e-therapy, feel free to start a thread for that, and I'll join in sometime when I am up to it.
