ok so I took the advice of the other thread and we talked about it. And we shook hands, looking at her face. She offered to do it again and I said yes, this time I looked at her hand, rotated, so I could see the back of her hand. And then we shook hands again at end of session. I think, like CrispApple said on the other thread, I might not need it again. It's just not a barrier, a limitation. We've had some pretty good talks about it over the last few weeks. I'm glad it came up and everything... it has been a tough but not overly rough couple of weeks.

And by the way... she's human

Glad it worked out well for you. First contact can be very important to the entire feel of therapy.
