I have a therapist that I have never met in person. I only do phone sessions with her. I love it. It has been easier for me than in person sessions because I have a tendency to overanalyze people's expressions and body language and think they are mad at me or they don't agree with what I am saying or something. I can't do that over the phone. It also forces me to say what I mean...not to rely on passive aggressive body language shrugging or rolling my eyes to convey what I am feeling.

It works really well for us...but we do have scheduled times so I can make sure I'm somewhere private and she can too. Maybe if you are worried about her calling when you aren't in a good place you could negotiate times over email or text.
Thanks for this!
