I would think it would be a good idea to not just let that situation slide by without discussing how you felt about it & get to know what your rights actually are in the UK....which might be different than our HIPPA laws here in the US.

I think the main issue I would have had was that she did it without talking over what she was planning on doing with me. I want to know what a person who is treating me is planning & to be an active part in my treatment which means knowing if someone else is going to be brought in to talk to me rather than just springing it on me without any communication at all about it.

Your T needs to know that the WAY she did it wasn't acceptable to you even if it might be within the law....she needs to know how much it bothered you just bringing in someone who knew everything about you without your being the one to tell them.

I know I would have been upset at the way she handled the situation even though it's nice that she was caring enough to bring in someone else who might be able to help more....it's the way she did it that was wrong.

It's good to get things out in the air that have bothered you rather then letting them slide & get burried....it's the things that we bury in life that stick around to haunt us later on.....I have found that out over the 58 years of life.
