My T doesn't touch me at all. She shows comfort by the tone of her voice, or the look in her eyes. I rarely email, and she would only 'comfort' in an email if I was in a real crisis,- its more for scheduling etc.
At first I did want more from her, hugs and contact between sessions.but I feel happy with it now. I am learning to use my own resources, and that's good.
It sounds really difficult for you right now, and that your ex-T would have been more comforting for you. But maybe your new T will also have something to bring you, just in a different way?
