Does your t take e-mails? I ask because my pdoc who used to be my therapist also, allowed e-mails and would answer me back. I used to e-mail her after sessions sometimes when I had trouble talking to her face. It was easier and I could express myself in an e-mail.

Well now I have a different t whom I like quite a lot but she won't take e-mail. She said to call her between sessions if I need to but it's not the same, if you know what I mean.

Now my pdoc doesn't want e-mails either, because she answers back every time "I have read that and please call me if you want to discuss (fill in blank) before I see you next". My pdoc and psychologist both work in the same place and can't help wonder if they just decided together that it's too much bother to answer an e-mail. I would sometimes e-mail my pdoc once or twice a week. Oh what is wrong with me? I am expecting too much of them. Now I am rambling.......but why do some accept e-mails and others don't? My current t says she wants me to call her also if I need to between sessions. Should I call them? They both said phone calls not e-mail. :-(
