I sometimes think my T is mad at me too (and do the placating thing), but it always turns out that he isn't.

It doesn't sound inappropriate at all. Just be prepared at next session to talk about why you called! That sounds like the sort of thing i'd want to text my T about, then i'd feel slightly embarrassed the next time I see him.
As for the vulnerability issues, a longer, in-session discussion might be best. If you don't want to separate the 2 issues, then maybe just wait till next session?

If she's not available in between sessions, maybe you could add to the message that you are not expecting a call back. Still, she might see such a phone message as off limits. But you don't know that unless you try. It is possible that she might say something about calling in between sessions too.

I wonder though, if the need to contact is more of a result of thinking she is angry at you, or maybe a need for reassurance of the relationship?

Hope it goes well.
Thanks for this!
