They do tend to just allow you the space to cry. It was best that way for me because had they reacted otherwise I probably would have stopped myself, and those tears were needed. The times my T did respond were when the crying was happening while I was dissociated. The response in those cases was to talk to me to try to help me get grounded. But I think if you are wanting to be physically comforted if you cry, that is not a very common reasponse. Perhaps you should discuss this with your T.
