This sounds a lot like how my T tends to word e-mails. Where she comments on the fact that it's OK/good I sent an e-mail, but not much commentary on the actual stuff I said. Which is hard when I've sent her paragraphs of my thoughts/feelings. Or she might say something vague like, "Interesting thoughts. Let's discuss next week." (I assume she just doesn't want to do therapy over e-mail.)

MC is more likely to comment on the actual content, but then he'll throw in something like "Good job," as in his recent e-mail (where I thanked him for his advice on processing my daughter's assessments and said I shifted how I was thinking about it as a result of what he said), and then it feels kinda patronizing.

I like JD's idea of thinking of your T saying it in person. So much is lost over e-mail/text (even phone) that you get in person. Then tone of voice, look in their eyes, body language.

Hope you're doing OK and getting some sleep.
