Wow. Well, you made me read a bit

Personally, i think the issues and benefits of physical contact with therapists are the following:
the issue - if there is the possibility of sexual urges towards the T, it should be excluded, such as different gender, or whether you're homosexual etc.. as it could become confusing, and leave the T unable to help due to mixed emotions.

Whereas, the benefit of a handshake, hug or a hand on shoulder is that it can feel comforting, especially to those who feel inadequate to others..

It all depends on the circumstances.
anyone agree?
