She's relaxed about things like contact between sessions, accepting homemade gifts etc., and she has sat next to me on the couch a couple of times - so her boundaries aren't to rigid, but she's also consistent. I've never seen her hug or touch any other client, and she's a trauma specialist so am hesitant to ask. I'm a pretty awkward person at the best of times, I think even just bringing it up might overwhelm me.
