Thanks. Interesting point. Yes, that´s right I would call her like next day or next week depending on what happened if there was an accident I mean. I would never expect her to visit hospital or similar though.

I agree to what you say about me calling her if something happened but in another way I find her not calling at all would deviate a lot from how she acts towards me in session. Sometimes she gives me a hug, she has sat close to me when we did a certain exercise including childhood photos and similar. Then why the “no call policy”?

If I didn’t show just to test her, I wouldn´t do that, and she suspected that was the reason then I could more of understand that she wouldn´t call me. But to see it just as “respecting a client’s will” as she seems to is to me rather ignorant. Also she hasn´t told me of this policy from the beginning but I assume she doesn´t know how important or not that specific policy will be to a client.

Plus she wouldn't go see you in the hospital anyways.

I don't think my T would call me, but I know she cares about me. I don't want to test her to find out. But she might call because I've been with her for 3.5 years, have never missed an appointment even when I don't feel like being there, and I'm always early.
