However my T and I do somatic/mindfulness work.that I find very helpful.

My somatic work also.includes touch but I suspect you may shy away fr.yjst

I didn't even read the book! I forgot to say that we do breathing work too. My T is very conscious of when I am holding my breath, which seems to be often when I'm anxious, so then she asks me to breathe slowly and mindfully. She's always asking if I can feel my legs, my feet, my arms. I was wondering about the touch for you too, musing. If you see a somatic therapist. I'd be sure to explain what happened with touch and your current T.
I don't seem to need to hold her hand anymore, which is real progress!
