I would most probably think like you and be disappointed about a T not calling or texting when she knew what was going on. Perhaps she has a policy that says she wonīt call or text you but you can text or call her?
Perhaps she thinks itīs too much like a personal relationship if she would call or text you after she heard on the news about the terror attacks? I donīt mean I defend her in any way but perhaps she thinks it would be too much of personal involvement if she for example called clients when they had to go to hospital or when some accident happened in their family.
Just my thoughts, I think itīs some kind of regular policy behind this. If I were you Iīd send her a text or an e-mail about my experiences and then waited for her answer and then evaluated if I thought it felt caring or not.

I think I expected an email or a text message, asking whether I'm doing well.
But it didn't happen.
And I feel very guilty, because what the hell am I worrying about right now, while all of those victims suffer(ed) so much. But it keeps haunting me. I have issues with not feeling valued and self-esteem and now I completely feel like nobody really cares. 
I almost feel like not showing up for my next appointment this week. Although I know it wouldn't help me either. But I don't know how I could ever mention how I feel right now. And don't know how I can work with a T who doesn't really care either...
Sometimes T asked me to send her a message when something big was happening in my life and it all feels so meaningless right now.
I don't know how I could not let this influence me in a bad way. Wondering whether it may be a kind of 'lesson', maybe she's too busy, maybe... |
