It's ok to be needy sometimes. Its ok to feel vulnerable and want to feel cared for. Its HUMAN. You seem to have a good perspective on this and to be fairly insightful about what you are feeling and why PLUS you understand the boundaries in therapy. I don't think you have anything to feel ashamed of and it is ok to reach out. Sometimes I think that the real work of therapy (at least for me) is learning that its ok to be human with human emotions and vulnerability.
