She won't get in trouble if there isn't a complaint filed against her, so don't worry. She has helped you in a time of real need and that's okay. that's great actually. Some therapists get away with having sex with their clients or harming them in other ways. I'm sure she will be fine.

I think what she meant was that she was stepping outside of professional boundaries. Psychotherapy isn't the ER and a therapist isn't technically supposed to help clients in such concrete ways, because then they become too involved and it can harm both client and therapist. BUT this was not the case here. I believe it's welcome and necessary to really physically help a client in such a difficult situation, like it is with everything you're going through. I'm really glad for you that you have such a sensitive, intuitive therapist who has the heart and courage to go out of her way for you when you really need it. Hope you are feeling better now.
Thanks for this!
