i dont have email access. In fact, my T says he rarely even does call backs (because people don't ask for them even). i think there is a totally different expectation of therapy and the interaction up where i live... im not sure why

the medical system doesnt provide coverage for all T's.. just ones employed by the hospitals... so the T's face the same situation... competition, market, client base, etc. So i have no idea why they dont seem to have to do things like email or phone calling... and no one seems to expect them to

my pdoc told me that the lengths my T goes to for me is really unusual.. he said T must be really invested in me to do these things...

i know going away for grad school will be horrible...

kim... i was thinking the same as echoes.. maybe he is away? im sorry he doesnt seem to give you what you need/want from emails... maybe you can arrange phone sessions while you're away? It can be done... phone cards, etc... or skype if you can get it arranged. Maybe like emails plus every other week phone session for even 15-20 min?
