Mine used to email me back, but he has stopped now. He kind of put the kibosh on that one and will call me if I email.....which is odd because I dont think I ever abused it. I prob emailed like 1x/mo and never crisis related. In fact, he was the one that encouraged me to write if I needed to and then I showed concern to him about it being too much and he said he didn't think it would be a concern I think there is so much gray area in this profession that they don't know what to do half the time lol

I think it best to try another T. You can interview them, sure. But I don't think they have a universal policy, IMO. I sometimes think it changes depending on the client, the way they feel that day, the way the wind is blowing maybe I'm sorry - I would be very hurt if my T didn't respond to something life-threatening. I would most likely let him know, too.
