I know how you feel I asked my Therapist for a hug at session last week but she told me that she only hugs at final sessions (which is at least an improvement from a prior Therapist of mine) and a few other circumstances. I have been thinking about alternatives to a hug if I am having a very hard session, such as having her sit next to me in the couch and maybe hand clasping, but really haven't gotten into it much with her, and honestly I hope not to have as hard of a session as I had that day again.
