When I did that (several times over a period of about a year or so) and I told my T about it (I was terrified!) he wasn't upset about it at all. He wanted to talk about what it meant to me but he said it's common for patients to be curious enough to drive past their T's houses. Sometimes it's just curiosity and sometimes it's to feel more connected; he said there are lots of reasons for it and he was concerned only about how it affected me. He told me if T's can't handle this sort of thing without getting upset or paranoid they shouldn't be T's. By the way, eventually as I became closer to him and I felt more connected to him in general, I had no need to get that connection by driving past his house. Haven't done it in several years now.
