Sometimes what I find hard to reconcile is that my T hugs me, and I want her to. Sometimes I'll hug her in the beginning of the session and then she'll hug me at the end. It's very therapeutic for me. And I know that she loves me; she has told me so many times. We could never have gotten where we have if we hadn't forged this bond. It's maternal, I know, and my mother gave me lots of hugs and still does.
In contrast, my pdoc and I have never touched--not even shaking hands. I don't want him to ever touch me.
