This would be me with both of my Ts. But especially with my personal T- too afraid of the rejection I'd most likely receive from him. My ED T is more likely to offer a hug or give one if asked, but for some reason, it would mean so much less coming from her. Our bond/trust just isn't the same.

Exactly I think that wanting a hug definatley shows how much you trust you Therapist.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
