That was a really nice email! Did you email her first or does she send unsolicited emails? That's unusual for a T. Maybe it was her way of telling you she didn't miss anything, but I think it's odd that she didn't apologize for the 10 minute phone call. If you emailed her first, did you bring up your feelings? Are you going to wait until your next session?

It reminds me a little of my situation with my T and my "rude email." I emailed her after the session that it bothered me, and why. I also said I was worried she didn't like me anymore. Her reply was only that it wasn't true at all that she doesn't like me. She didn't say anything about the situation itself.

My T answered her phone once in 5 years, but it was very brief and she told me first. I think it was her daughter. If it were an emergency I would understand because I have kids too, but I would expect an apology. If my T didn't have anyone after me, I would ask if we could make up the time. Maybe your T had to rush home to take her daughter to the Dr. Things happen.

My T started a few minutes late with me, maybe 5 or even 7 minutes, a few sessions ago. She apologized. We ended on time because her next client was waiting.I said "that's not fair!" She gave me a couple more minutes but first repeated "it's not fair" and said something about that's the way life is. In a nice way, meaning things happen.
