I had updated one of my earlier t's for a few years after termination (saw her through school and was unable to keep seeing her after graduation). I don't think she ever responded with more than thanking me for the update and she was glad I was doing well (only ever updated her on the good stuff). She was also the only student t that remained at the organization after her internship. One t terminated me because I was too much, so I never kept in touch nor did I have any desire to keep in touch. It was only later that I realized how much her strong views on how I should receive treatment actually negatively impacted all of it. The t i left because of a cross-country move I keep in touch with still and may be going back to see her later this year as we are moving back to the area... I think it all depends on the situation and the nature of the relationship after termination. You had said you were thinking along the therapeutic lines. From a business standpoint, I could see how sporadic contact for help may necessitate getting paid at some point... that part is left to the therapist and/or clinic from which they practice. The t I see now I doubt I'd keep in contact with except maybe to update on how the move went and such, but we have not talked about that. I'd love to keep in contact with our couples therapist add friends, but I doubt she wants that...
