I'm with you, I never have felt like I was in an emergency...hospital state. My old T consistantly reinforced his availability in between sessions and once I did call. I got his answering machine and it said in case of emergency call this number...my next session I told him I had called and gotten the answering machine but didn't leave a message. He asked why I didn't call the emergency number and I said nobody was dying so I didn't think it was an emergency...I have lived through the terminal illness of my husband and a daughter who was critically injured so my definition of emergency is also different than most. He changed his message on his machine and it now says in case of an emergency or an immediate need please call said number. Soooooo all of that to say it's not like I call in between sessions but if this therapy is a team effort as the T says, it must be nice to only be on the team one hour a week with not thought of the team in between. Am I overeacting? It seems like such an important part to me I'm wondering if this new T is a good fit even though I find him easy to talk with and very insightful.
