The first thing I want to say is that I hope you feel proud of asking for what you wanted, and believe you need. That is terrific! 
I see my therapist twice per week, and have been since winter. For me, there is absolutely no more "attachment" to her 2 x week than there is 1 x week. I am attached to her, and that's how it is.
Being attached (or not) to one's therapist is what therapy is about. The attachment is how we do the work.
I will say that each T most likely has a specific reason for seeing a client once or twice per week. Of course, we don't know exactly why you're in therapy or what you're working on. And we don't know your therapist.
Whatever the case, there was nothing wrong for you to request an additional session per week. Nothing wrong. I encourage you to discuss how you're feeling with your therapist. I think it's extremely important. Your feelings and thoughts about the subject are so very, very important.
btw, anyone can have their own thread. The subject has come up before, Doc John chimed in and said it's okay.
