So let's see... Your prof in your counselling/psychotherapy program who is supposed to be modelling good boundaries in psychotherapy has a student who is crisis. Instead of listening supportively, encouraging her to speak with a therapist and perhaps giving her an extension on an assignment, said professor becomes this student's ad hoc psychotherapist! At her own home! And holds her for half an hour! I can barely think for the alarm bells going off in my head!!! Seriously?
And then what? Are they going to meet for more holding and therapy again? Does the student get an A for all of this? This is messed up. Of course you feel uneasy with it.

Thanks for this response. I was thinking the same thing myself, but I tend to be a little brash so I was afraid my response would not sound supportive. I totally agree with you on this one. Warning bells and red flags all over the place.
