I remember talking to my T a couple of months ago about feeling very clingy to him. He didn't seem to even bat an eyelash. He made it feel okay that I felt like this, he didn't try to make me feel any diffferent. I needed to feel close to get "real" about my therapy. Now I still close to him, but yet I am not too clingy anymore. I am going every 2 weeks now, and even though it is hard sometimes, I know I can do it. If I can 't and I need to see him earlier, I am sure he will find time for me. But I am still trying to make it on my own.
So I would say it is okay to feel attached. It must be something that we all need in our lives. Most T's are safe to be attached to. :)
