seems that could fit with her name change, her divorce, her changing what is happening in sessions etc, and her determining email boundaries
writing when they don't reply is painful

It's nice to see you here again, tigergirl.




Yes! I thought of that about not being in charge at the end of writing my last post. It seems like a lot of times in my life someone else is in control, not me. This is definitely something to bring up next week. It's about not liking change, too.
My T doesn't have too many boundaries. I'm glad she decided to make one about emailing. It's NOT painful because it was MORE painful when I would write my feelings or reactions and she would ignore them. In the beginning of therapy, she would answer my emails in detail, "between my lines", as I called it. But that became too much for her, and she started answering very briefly. She said she didn't want to be a T via email. I don't expect her to answer so it's not a problem.
