Ah, for some people it's not strange or rude at all- my therapist uses between-session coaching as an important part of the way he works, and encourages me to get in touch if necessary.

Everyone's therapy is different, but there are some styles of therapy that welcome or encourage between-session contact. It's been one of the most helpful aspects of my therapy.
Thanks for this!
