Depends on what you mean by "friends." I think it's possible to keep in contact with fondness and connection with each other and increased sharing by the T (I wonder if the sharing would ever really be equal given the unequal knowledge base). Perhaps a "friendship" like may teachers have for their students. But then I could never go back to her the next time I needed therapy so don't know if I would do that. I think a friendship like with my "buds" would be hard.
