I have about the same ratio. None of my previous ts hugged, except maybe at the last session they would ask me for a hug, which would freak me out. I would be like, NOW?? I dont need a hug now! We're over now!! Where have you been for the last x years? Werent we human then? So i explained that to my current t, and just my good luck, at my very first session, he was giving a goodbye hug to his previous patient, a little boy, so i said, "i KNOW you dont discriminate on age or sex, right? So give ME a hug!" So he did, snd we talked about it many times, and we still talk about - not just about that first time, but about whether its still okay, how it has changed, how it has changed me, even about the pc discussions about hugging.
Thanks for this!
