What is your policy re touch (e.g. handshake)

How do you work with clients who are triggered in session?

Thanks, Rive, these are helpful. I just emailed one for a free 15-minute conversation, so these seem like good things to ask (though I imagine more than would fit into 15 minutes--just want to get a sense of whether she could be a good fit.


She mentioned "warm and nurturing" on her website, which sounds nice. And does work in somatic therapy (plus other modalities), which seems like it could help with some of my anxiety. I'm not sure which type specifically she does, as it sounds like some involves actual touch and other types don't (EMDR is technically somatic therapy, for example).

I have a list of other possibilities, too. I think some of those also do free consults, so perhaps I could spend the next couple weeks T shopping between my sessions (if I even go to them, as today was...not good).
