[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 355103, member: 1514"] Ok...Im chiming in from something I just talked about with my therapist...or now former therapist. We have had to sever our professional relationship for a number of reasons one of the major ones is that we have probably crossed some invisible client/therapist lines. She is a very nice woman who I have sooooo much in common with. We both have difficult child's. We both have granddaughters the same age. We both have fibro though hers just started about 2 years ago. She was divorced about a year ago and has bought a house and needs help on it because the contractor she got originally left her in the lurch so Tony is helping her work on her house. So...we have become pretty good friends outside the walls of the therapy room. In fact for most of the last year we havent even met in her office, its always for lunch where we do our sessions. Plus my insurance wont pay for her anymore. But I was going to pay for her out of pocket once a month or so but we have decided to have me see someone new and sever out professional relationship and just be friends. Works for me. However, if you dont have that type of friendship we do, crossing any of those boundaries is very iffy. We went back and forth for several months about me even knowing where she lived for Tony to go work on her house. That was a biggie. Thats when we started deciding to back off on our professional relationship because that really made the ties too close. Now maybe it wouldnt be a problem in your case. Just something to think about.
