I was having a conversation with someone about therapy yesterday and the topic of contact between sessions came up. She mentioned that if she has had a particularly difficult session, or has left a bit upset or has made herself vulnerable by sharing important stuff, her T often sends her a short text to let her know she is in her thoughts and that she hopes that she is ok. It never develops in to a full blown conversation, she just responds with a smiley face emoji and that’s it.
It got me thinking about how common this is, does anyone else’s T do this?
