Although I often fantasise about T contacting me out of the blue and things of that nature, I know that things could get weird and confusing if she did. I have rather intense maternal transference towards my T and even though it is hard to deal with, I am glad my T has such strong boundaries.
Not too long ago I told T I was going to take a little break from therapy and I wasn't sure how long it would be but thought it would be something like 2-3 weeks. T asked me if I would like her to get in touch with me if I didn't contact her in a couple of weeks and even though I thought that would be really nice, I said no because I knew deep down I didn't need it and was able to contact T on my own.
