Hi there
I'm sorry that you're paying a lot of money for the texting with your therapist. I'm glad that you have reached out to all of us so that you get various situations regarding texting. If your therapist stands firm on her price you may want to think about scaling back a bit.. if it's something you're not comfortable with. My own experience is that I usually email my therapist once a week after our session, it helps me to feel connected and also is comforting if something is upsetting me. Texting is pretty much for scheduling stuff. She's never made this a rule but it works for both of us. In all the years we've been doing this work I think I've only called her once or twice, and that was for scheduling an appointment for myself and my partner to come in together.
I hope this is something that you and your therapist can discuss and come to a good compromise. : )
