I can only hope that you find what you need and also communicate it as well.

I have to think that T's have personal boundaries as much as we do. Some may have concerns about how it will affect the relationship, themselves or you. Sometimes my T KNOWS I feel disconnected..but waits for me to try and reach out. Sounds dumb, but sometimes I just hold a finger..just one. But he always waits for me to ask...really makes me say the words. I HAVE to ask for a hug...or it will not happen, but if I do, he is always happy to give me an appropriate hug. I think that discussions have to be open and honest as to where the boundaries will be...It took me sooo long to get up the courage to ask for what I needed, did not need and wanted. It's up to him to let me know what he can tolerate or thinks is appropriate in the therapeutic relationship.
