I'm struggling with my new T a little. She has more boundaries than my ex-T. I respect her boundaries, but at the same time she's not meeting my needs.

My problem is with her showing concern and/or providing comfort. She will give me hugs after every session when I'm ready, but I'm not ready yet. She won't sit next to me on the couch, she won't rub my arm, or touch me in anyway. Her expressions (facial, posture, vocal) don't change. And now she won't provide comfort through emails...

I am struggling a lot this week. Receiving the book from ex-T has triggered my grief. I have cried every night since. Last night was the worst. I tried to get comfort from my fiance and he instead started a fight. So I emailed my T asking for comfort. She responded by saying she wants to provide me with comfort, but she has a boundary about how much she write in emails...

This isn't working out. I need to feel comforted by her. I need to know she cares. This deprivation of support and comfort only makes me want my ex-T more. I crave that comfort she used to provide me! My new T is a good T, but what are ways within her boundaries that she can comfort me? What are ways your T comforts you?
