Although i use and benefit from email. It is for me to express my emotions as I have/feel them as I am an avoider, so in session, I am unable to "avoid" what i was feeling last week or yesterday as my t brings them forward and we deal with them there. Or else, I may never get those out. It elicits an enormous amount of response in session with her. She has set boundaries on her emailing acceptance/response and capabilities. i know not all her clients are "alowed" this, so I am confident that she has reviewed me and what will work for our dyad and I have respect for that......she will let me know when/if this tool is becoming something other than a positive.

I think yes, if the t is capable and ethical and responsible then it their decision to create boundaries regarding the use of email is absolutely acceptable in individual cases.
