30/10/2024 0 Comments Exploring Boundaries:When Cuddle Therapy Isn’t Right for You1. Looking for a Massage
Cuddle therapy focuses on gentle, platonic touch and emotional support, not massage or deep tissue work. If you’re seeking physical relief through muscle manipulation or massage techniques, a licensed massage therapist would be a better fit. 2. Active Mental Health Crises If you’re experiencing an acute mental health crisis, such as severe anxiety, depression, or psychosis, it may be best to seek support from a licensed therapist or counsellor first. Cuddle therapy can be a great complement to clinical mental health treatment, but it’s not a substitute. If advised by your therapist, we may work together in some situations; however, I cannot actively assist with mental health conditions. 3. Seeking Romantic or Sexual Contact Cuddle therapy is strictly platonic and therapeutic. If someone is looking for romantic or sexual intimacy, this type of therapy will not meet those needs. Any inappropriate behaviour will lead to an immediate stop to the session without a refund. 4. Dependency Concerns If you’re worried about becoming overly dependent on this type of support, it may be wise to first build additional coping skills or incorporate other therapeutic practices. If you believe you might have this issue but feel ready for cuddle therapy, please let me know so we can work through it safely. If not disclosed, but dependency concerns arise during therapy, we may need to pause sessions for the well-being of both you and myself. Cuddle therapy can be a powerful support tool for many, but it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution. Listening to your comfort level and consulting trusted professionals is essential for finding what’s right for you. Photo by Monstera Production @ Pexels
