I asked my therapist for a handshake once at the end of a session. He gave it without comment. The next session I asked if he had been curious about the unusual request.
He said that he figured that I wanted contact, but didn't feel comfortable with the idea of a hug, so asked for a handshake instead.
It's nice to have a therapist understand you so deeply.
So I ask for a handshake now and again.
