This is the only part I have pause with. Ts should never apologize for going on vacation. They really deserve that time off. (I don’t think they should answer emails while away either.) If a client can’t handle their T going away for a couple of weeks a year, they might need to look into a higher level of care until they can handle it. (A T going away for much longer and more often is a different story altogether which is what prompted my revival of this older thread….because that’s just not good for helping a client to feel safe and secure in the relationship.)
