I am about to experience a prolonged break from therapy due to holidays. The break incidentally follows a rupture we experienced (or not so incidentally, but that's another thread ...). To manage the situation, she offered email contact during the break or a transitional object.

I had a really strong reaction against the thought of a transitional object. I don't want any of her stuff at my house. Probably more importantly, it felt infantilising.

How do you feel about transitional objects?
