I was only allowed 2x a week for 8 weeks in a crisis. He does not do it longer or regularly so clients don't get dependent on him. Yes it helped with connections but it also made the attachment stronger and I felt more dependent at times which I hated. Some days I hate his rule but others I'm glad because I still feel independent yet close to him which I like. I suggest talking to him about it. Maybe you can come up with something like a regular email since the 2nd session wont work for you right now. Good luck
