Would be most appropriate to establish clearly at the beginning of therapy?
I think that was when things got incredibly complicated for me and former T - as it was about 9 months into therapy that the e-mailing/messaging suddenly were not appropriate and she said she didn't do text therapy. It was so difficult to respect the new "therapeutic boundaries" that were not there initially - and I was confused to why she implemented them so quicky. It would have been more helpful for boundaries to be somewhat more consistent... though perhaps she thought I needed the extra support at the beginning... who knows?
Anyone else really struggle with boundaries that were implemented too late?
