Hi, in my Ts office, she has a full size sofa (which I sit on) and then a full size chair that she sits on. The distance between her and me is around 8 feet. We face each other. I sometimes feel she is sitting so far away from me.

I going through this really difficult period right now and was thinking of asking her to sit on the sofa with me (not to close, by the other end) or move her chair closer. I just feel I need to be closer to her right now as she is the only one to know what Im going through (even my family doesn't know).

I will tell her she doesn't need to do this at every session, just this one as I think it will be an intense session.

Do u think this is an unreasonable request? Perhaps there is some psychological reason she sits so far across from me and not next to me. How far apart are you from your T? Thanks for your input!
