I see my T at the gym. We take the same fitness class (by coincidence). At first I felt a little weird about it but I don't anymore. We talked about it in therapy and I wanted to know if it made her uncomfortable. In some ways it's comforting to see her and we exchange basic "how's the weather". It's kind of interesting to see her out of the office. I can see how what she does is a 'job' however she does care about her clients.
I just have to make sure I don't count on seeing her for my own comfort outside of the office. For me however it reinforces that she is 'there' and not going away. I do hold onto some abandonment issues.
