Anyway, sadly I have no good advice but I do get your dilemma. I am thinking it over and over every day myself. I agree with the person who suggested email or phone call if they do that, and even 2x a week but be aware, it can make the attachment grow more. I go 2x a week right now and I feel lost on the weeks when I am back to weekly. It's such a stressful journey lol

Thank you for sharing.
Have you spoken to your T about your growing feelings? It helps to talk about it and get it out in the open.
My T doesn’t allow for out of session phone or email. I understand that. I am mostly fine between sessions. It’s just after a particularly hard session or when I feel triggered that I feel I need out of session contact. It would be so helpful to me as I am struggling a lot right now. I tried to call a crisis hotline(for the first time) and their phone line is busy 😟
