It's interesting because the office of my ex T (other than my pdoc) just called me Friday to say she has come back to the practice and wanted to offer me an appointment if I was interested. Now that I've been using my pdoc for monthly therapy, I don't feel more T is necessary. Plus with work, school and kids, I don't have time for weekly therapy AND pdoc visits (even monthly is a struggle with time).
Yet I'd love to see her to catch up and just chat. I feel like I could be friends with her but the boundaries won't allow it (it hasn't been the 2 years). So I made an appointment, as it seems like the only acceptable way to socialize. I felt no power differential at all...she's 5 years younger than me and our t was more CBT/DBT than psychoanalysis. The attachment was healthy, since I want to see her but if I can't it would be ok. Now if this were the pdoc I see now, the feelings would be very different.
