Seeing my therapist on the street

Posted by Mindriot on May 15, 2001, at 20:46:28

I was sitting by a large window looking out onto the main street from a coffee shop I was at. I saw my Therapist walking down the street. I quickly pretended to scratch my head, to cover my face, in hopes she wouldn't see me as she walked by. I pretty sure she saw me, and worse probabally figured out I was hiding from her, ugh! I should of just waved to her through the window. I don't know why I hid my face from her. I'm sure that when I see her friday she'll bring it up, and I'll have to lie and tell her I didn't see her. Does anyone else feel weird when they see their therapist outside the offfice?

Don't worry, I think that they have a standard protocol that they are supposed to pretend they don't know you too. I have had it happen a couple of times and just saw that on the Sopranos first episode (just bought the first season on DVD)

It is really weird to see them though, its so out of context. I was really relieved when the first time mine just pretended he didn't know me, but then I felt a little offended too. It is a hard thing to share an intimate relationship with someone that has to be kept so private, but they understand that and I am sure that they will be willing to talk about it if you want to. But they may not bring it up.
