did you know that the thread-counts on the sheets of the poster beds at Camp comfort are a minimum of 800?
I think your T cares a lot for you. Maybe she wants to make sure to mention it at several sessions just in case on of your inside people is off on vacation during a session. You know, touch bases with the whole crew.
She'll be coming back hoping to find you even better than when she left you, and prepared to find you worse than when she left you. The most IMPORTANT thing though, is that she WILL be coming back, and wants to make sure that you will be too.
I think your T has a really big heart. I hope you'll be able to remember something about her that will help you through times when you don't have weekly support. It's kind of like faith, in a way. You DO have faith in her, and she has faith in you too. Just because you have faith, though, doesn't mean that you can't be prepared, and prepare yourself for the break.
Also, maybe she really cares for you, and wants to quell her own insecurities that when she comes back she'll have none of her favorite clients who visit her every week (or 10 times a week or whatever your habit is).

my t is very conscious about how things (even small things) might affect my experience with and relationship with her.
that's what good T's do. they try to be sensitive and sensible.
*********
my kind advice to you- get prepared. prepare for the worst. hope for the best.
Who is your emergency back-up support? (sometimes you have crises and I don't want you to hurt).
Who will you see every week just to "check-in" and say "hi, my name is muffled, I'm 15 years old and I'm angry inside, and oh yeah, did I mention that I enjoy walks on the beach and that seroquel gives me the munchies?"
As soon as you know the answers to these questions (on next Tues) then you WONT have to worry anymore (yay!!!!)
