I have frequent emails my therapist. I probably email 3-4 times every week. Sometimes more. It is encouraged and works well for us. She is on vacation this week, so I respect that and won't send any emails. Instead, I write them and keep them in my draft folder. Then, the night before our session, I will send them to her so that she can see what's been going on with me while she was gone.

Email has been a big part of my therapy. In fact, she has told me numerous times that email IS part of my therapy and that I should email as often as I need to. It has had some rough spots, but only because I was too insecure to believe that she really wanted me to send them.

I am not one to talk on the phone, but she's fine with that if I need to call her. I have only done that about 3-4 times in the past 3 years. I only text about appointment times.
