One of my T’s used to let me email her all the time before it became a boundary issue. Since I started sending a lot of SI ones and she wouldn’t see them until a couple hours after I had sent them. She said if I had done something between the time I sent the email and the time she read it a couple hours later it could cost her her license.

My last T encouraged emails between sessions and would often start a chain of them herself about things. I did send a crisis type one one time and she called my mom but she still allowed me to email her after that.

I found her to be more helpful and understanding in emails then in person.
