I struggle most on weekends, so my T has asked me to text her an update every Sunday evening. That way, if I need another session or a phone call on Monday, we can schedule it. At first, it felt very weird to text her, but now I've gotten used to it. Just yesterday, I texted her because the front desk hadn't called her to let her know I was there and it was already 5 minutes past the hour.

I'm more comfortable texting her than I used to be, but I still try to use it sparingly. I don't think it blurs boundaries if your T says it's okay and if you use it as a quick update or quick message. If you expect therapy by text, I think that might be asking a bit much. Text is really designed for short exchanged of information, and that's how my T and I use it.
