My T offered phone calls to me. I can call her as often as I wish and leave any kind of message. If it's urgent (my discretion) I can call her on her cell. When I leave a message and want her to call me back, I tell her in the message and she will call when she can. She always returns my calls when I ask and several times has called even when I didn't ask. I love that I can pick up the phone and connect with her at any time of the day or night, as leaving a message makes me feel connected.

We always discuss the content of the call(s) at the next session so it is really very helpful.

I love that she offered this to me.
I can remember how surprised and how cared for I felt when she said
"How would you like to be able to call me between sessions?"
