I don't know if the T. I see treats offenders.... I try VERY hard to not ever ask or hear about any of the clients T. sees.

Can you explain -- "something has changed"?

what is different to you?

is it that you feel much closer physically to an offender?
do you fear having one be that near?
do you fear for your therapist's well being?
(you don't have to answer those "out loud")

the way I figure it-- I went to school with a murderer, I have a molester, a drug dealer and many alcoholics in my family and don't doubt a neighbor somewhere nearby is doing something illegal....
offenders walk around in life just like the rest of us law abiding citizens.(that is, once they're out of jail or before they get caught) One could become so worried that they never want to go anywhere or do anything if they let themselves think about it very much.

I'm sorry it's got you a bit off balance...... maybe this is something that you could talk about next time-- could be something significant to discuss.

best to you
