My therapist always hugs me at the end of every session, but it's an awkward hug because first he shakes my hand and then he pulls me close with his other arm and embraces me tightly while still holding or shaking my hand. Does that make any sense? It confuses me--why not just either hug me or shake my hand?

I know this is a silly thing to wonder about and I've thought about asking about, but I think the question would be awkward.
