I'm sorry you're hurting so much! Please keep in mind that there's no shame in needing her

Maybe one step would be trying not to think of it as either/or: not a matter of being too clingy or entirely independent, or of no e-mailing vs e-mailing a lot. I suspect some sort of middle ground needs to be found -and this can be a topic to deal with throughout therapy and for a long time, it's so difficult. Yes, please share your feelings and thoughts with her. I know how it can get overwhelming afterwards, things start to hit you all at once, and then you have to wait until the next session to talk about it. I don't know if it would be helpful for you, but maybe if you write down your thoughts and feelings about this (and/or print out the above) and share them with her next session, to make sure you don't miss anything in the moment.

Good luck
Thanks for this!
