Best Answer

Generally, physical contact between a doctor and his/her patient should remain, though close and confidential, professional and platonic.

If, within the context of the treatment the "cuddling" is limited in scope and intended therapeutically (such as helping you to remove physical comfort barriers through exposure therapy), it is not necessarily inappropriate.

On the other hand, if there are any romantic or sexual undertones, I would suggest seeking another psychologist. A romantic attachment to your shrink is a common self defense mechanism that helps you avoid your problems at best, and is an indicator of sexual manipulation at worst.

Is it okay to cuddle friends of the opposite sex?

Only if neither is in a romantic relationship with anyone else. If one or both of them have a boyfriend/girlfriend/fiance/husband/wife/etc then it isn't acceptable. You might say but if they are just good friends nothing can come of it, but nine times out of ten, that is wrong, plus you shouldn't need to cuddle with a friend if you have someone else in your life. You would cuddle with them, not your friend. If someone feels the need to cuddle with a friend when they have a romantic interest somewhere else, then something is wrong. But! If neither friend has a romantic partner, then it is perfectly acceptable to just cuddle.
