My ex-T refused all touching except for a handshake (I never requested it, it came up in a conversation re: his boundaries on the subject), which I think he reserved for meeting a client for the first time. My current T has hugged me 4 or 5 times, all when I have been upset and then once this last session because I have a big, anxiety-producing appt. coming up and he was trying to be supportive.
I personally grew up without much touch and as an adult don't need or really want it (I call it "my personal bubble") unless I am in a relationship with a guy, and then my needs can vary depending on that relationship.
Anyway, the important part...I read everything you typed in your first post and I think it was cold of her not to acknowledge how upset you were...she can still be comforting with her words and tone, even if not with her hand (if she feels that is a personal/professional boundary for her, I can understand that).
However, with you being blind, I would think touch would be an important part of your therapy, as you are missing the cues the rest of us get to see. I don't think it's wrong to keep looking for the right T who will include touch in your therapy....I think it might be difficult to proceed and feel fulfilled w/out it.
I have read several people posting on here about Ts and receiving hand-holding or hugs from them, either during every session, when requested, or when needed as a form of support.
I say keep looking...it's great that you are checking out some opportunities, and I am sorry more are not readily available to you. You deserve the right kind of T who can give you the care you need.
