Interesting .... SO, will you ever consider giving hugs as a T when it's you own clients? I know everyone will be different, but would it ever be appropriate?
With our kids T, who also did family therapy with us, she and I hugged when she would greet us at the door, and I didn't give it a 2nd thought, it was like hugging an aunt. And I never for a second had transference of any kind, never had that with a woman T, don't know why that is. She was just delightful. But then again I wouldn't have wanted to do therapy with her, she was older and too prim and proper for my issues.
