golly, I am so impressed with falls' post that I don't think I have a thing to add, 'cept maybe ditto.
Okay wait. I'm almost never at a loss for words. ;)
Last year a couple of times I ran into one of the people I supervised on my practicum at my T's office. I actually have a friend who sees "my T", but others in the office where I worked last year saw other T's at the same center. In one case, it was perfectly comfortable for both of us, I think, to sit in the waiting room together. In another case, it was not, and I never saw that person again at the center. And another time I actually stopped and gave a hug to one who came out still crying. It's very weird. I think in my case, these are all people training to be T's, so we are a bit more primed to have this stuff happen.
But with those who are not "in the field", I suppose you can't always know how it will be. I am guessing if I ran into someone from outside school in my T's office or even in the clinic where I work now, I would be uncomfortable.
Okay, enough of me blabbering. I think, even though it was hard for you, that this was a very valuable experience. Just look what it triggered! That's good! :) It's good to get that out in the open. And I'm sure your T thinks so, too.
Daisy, you are a wonderful person, all of you...all parts, ages, and imagos, etc.
