His marital status doesn't matter to me, but it matters that he doesn't tell me about it. I do not want to know. As for social status, the way you apparently mean it, it doesn't matter in terms of status what kind of office it is, but I am of course very grateful to be seeing a therapist who is paid by the system so I can get therapy for free. I wouldn't like to go to a hospital or other clinical setting, though. I don't think I would see a T who did not have a regular office, because a hospital environment would feel insecure. I have seen one T who was part of a larger practice, but it feels better to have a T with his own private (albeit publicly funded) practice, with no other staff who could potentially get access to my information. But that's a security thing, not a status thing.

What does matter is experience, and gender. Even though I don't belive in inherent gender differences, I find it easier to work with a male therapist.
