I used to hate talking on the phone, but phone conversations with my T has changed that for me a bit over time. One thing that surprised me was that my T is actually slightly different on the phone than in person, in a good way. She is a bit less reserved and generally even warmer and kinder. I think she also knows that she can't rely on me seeing her facial expressions, so she is a bit more effusive with her words. It's not a night and day difference or anything, but it's nice. I think it might be worth experimenting with, if your T offered. If it doesn't go well, you don't have to do it again.
