I've never had a boundaries discussion with my T. She knows I don't want to be hugged/touched. I have seen her hug the client before me when leaving so I know she does it but I don't want that. I have her email and text but don't often use it (about 2x per year)....and when I do use it I don't expect a therapeutic response. We keep everything we do within the 60 minutes of therapy. It works for us. I realize some clients may need more.
