I have had an extra session between sessions once and that was only after she offered it about 15 times before I agreed.

I think my issue is that as much as I want to rely on T, I also don't want to over rely on her either. I don't want the boundaries to become blurred and this is all new to me as I have always been under NHS before which is no extra sessions, no outside contact and no getting to know a T because by the time you do it is over.

So it is complicated.

I really do need to have this convo with T but the problem is I have about 5 convos from the 3 week break I 'need' to discuss too all in my head are pretty urgent.

Maybe I need to ask for some extra sessions over the next few weeks to get it all out

This is where I'm wondering if there is a difference between depend and rely. I hope everyone has found these discussions helpful , they do cross over somewhat into others , such as boundaries or rules.
