So I see T's reasoning ethically.....but I think in the name of ethics genuine connection and acts of simple caring are being sacrificed at times......I feel sort of sacrificed on the altar of ethics......that's dramatic, but with truth despite the drama of the wording! ![]() |

I love hugging my T (lets not forget that we are hugging them as much as they are hugging us... unless you stand there like a telephone pole). 98% of the time I can't feel it though. I let me feel me hugging her but I can't feel her arms around me. So I enjoy being close enough to smell her and hear her breathe (Smells are part of my autism and hearing her breathe reminds me that she really is real). Hmmmm.... guess what I'm gunna have to be working on next session...

I had one T who let me hug her even though she knew I had sexual feelings towards her. She used it to teach me that I can not act on my desires if they might harm someone else and my abusers didn't have to act on theirs either. She also used it to teach me that there are many kinds of love and touch that don't involve sex.

my T hugs me after each session (and i of course hug her back). she didn't for the first 1.5 years. now days it isn't weird to me any more. it lets me know that no matter what work i do in therapy, i am still a good perosn worth something as simple and endearing as a hug.
