I call my T by her first name, when I call her by name, i.e. phone calls. I call my pdoc by Dr and his last name. In both cases it seems a little weird though. Partailly, with my pdoc at least, because my T and my mom call him by his first name. My T and pdoc work out of the same office and my mom went to med school with my pdoc. I'm not sure why I find it weird to call my T by her first name... maybe too informal. I guess I'm not happy with either.
