When I found that page, I was like... WOW he is either super stupid or
he really wants EVERYONE to know about him. Since he was writing thesis about on-line counsellings and all that.

He used to use fake name with me, however one day, out of blue, he told me this
" Mike is not my real name, you know that right?"
"Micheal" is my real name.

I was like, oh, ok... Did I ask you???? Why are you telling me this now???

I thought he was giving me some kind of clues
" OK, I want you to goggle me with my real name"
Yes, I can read ppl's mind????????????????????

I don't have to know everything but I just wonder why he would even put all these details about himself on-line with his picture... where anyone could find him just by typing his name...

I was trying see if I could find any info on my current P docr...
I didn't find ANYTHING about her at all...I was lucky if I could find her name on the net.

Have you found any info about your T's or C's on line???
well, I guess it's different because he was doing his practicum...
but if I was a student and doing my practicum as a counselor, I don't think I would feel comfortable writing name of my school, or my previous job related to counseling or my personal interests and all that...

Sorry but could I ask you why it upset you to find out your T uses a different name. Mike is short for Micheal and that does not seem unusual to me.

I know plenty people that have different names for different things. My former T had several different names. I use different names. I don't go to work and tell everyone I am pegasus. I have professional details about myself in various places but I don't necessarily share everything about me every place I go.

I'd like to understand why it troubles you.
