I call myself a client and my T will refer to me as a client because I choose that term. But I know that generally T calls her clients patients.

I see myself differently though. I see myself somewhere between a client and a friend. My T has said that I am more than a client to her. I have recently come to believe that T and I are more like "work friends." I have a friendly supportive relationship with her that remains bound to one setting.

How do you see yourself?
