My psychologist passed on something that I told her during a session to my pdoc (they share office space). It was legal since I had signed a paper that included giving her the right to talk to him. I think that if she thought he needed to know something I said, that she should have told me and let me tell him (if I decide he should know). I got really blindsided the next time that I saw him. When I went to my next appointment with the psychologist intending to have it out with her, I discovered that she had taken a vacation day and not told her patients. So now I'm really mad. I don't think she has any respect for her patients and don't know if I trust her now. I know that her not showing up for our apoint is really bad, but am I over reacting to her having talked to my pdoc rather than giving me the opportunity to tell him myself. Is it typical for therapist to tell your pdoc what you said during sessions with the therapist? I do know that if I continue to see her I am revoking her right to talk to him.
