Hi esthersvirtue................kudos to you for your bravery! Don't be too hard on yourself for being needy. This email conversation is a great start to hopefully some further discussion about this. I'd like to encourage you to speak of this in person, perhaps in your next session. I think seeing your T and their emotional response or facial expression and tone of voice may help you feel better about the answers. You can keep 'probing' together at this and I think you'll be more happy with what is said.
They probably care more than you know. I actually asked mine.........I want to know if you care about me and how and why and do you 'like' me as a person, as a client and so on...... and what does that mean.....she was awesome, and I kept asking and asking along this line and she kept answering and answering until I felt my "need" filled for the moment.

(((((((((((((((((((hugs for you & your courage)))))))))))))))))))))
