I guess I am mostly in that category. My T hasn't told me not to contact him, but I don't. I do have his phone number and email, though. I prefer, actually REALLY LIKE, the face to face contact in the session. When I need to make or cancel an appointment, I do call or email him. So I
can contact him, but it is not common I need to change the appointment. If I were having some kind of crisis, I think my T would be OK with my contacting him. I know when my father died, the next time I saw T and told him, he seemed kind of surprised I had not called him, so I knew he would have been been receptive to contact. To be honest, I would be kind of embarrassed to call him for support. I do not like admitting I need help, support, etc.
