Am I the only one who thinks it's difficult to know what's ok when it comes to basic boundaries like if you're allowed to call or email your therapist? He's never really talked to me about it.

It would be really unusual for a T to use a personal number for work. Even if he does (improbable) he has the option of turning off his phone or screening his calls if it's not a good time. You don't have to worry about him. You cannot interrupt anything that he doesn't want you to interrupt.
Basic boundaries at their most very basic: it's ALWAYS ok to call or email for scheduling issues. Otherwise how would you ever make, change or cancel an appointment?
Cut and paste the little template from me or mastodon into an email for him and send. I promise it's okay.
