I have a personal T and a couples counselor I see with my partner. The other day I got a text, with no introduction (no, Hello, hi, how are you...) asking for the information of my Couples counselor. I've spoken to my own T about our CC before and always with high praise. The CC has helped us a lot and is helping me with some perspective on personal issues as well. So I figured, perhaps T was asking for the info to recommend to someone else. I sent the info and she said thanks and smiley face— That was it.

When I had therapy with her later that day and she didn't bring it up. I didn't ask because, well, I figured if it was a recommendation she wouldn't be able to say anything about another client's situation.

Then I kinda wondered why she wouldn't have had someone in her own circle to recommend? Don't all T's have connections? Then I wondered if my T wanted to consult with my CC about my situation specifically. I can't really imagine anything they would need to discuss, Though I've discussed some emotional abuse and other issues with both— I'm not in some kind of danger zone or anything close to that.

am I reading too much into it? Would a T do that, consult with a clients other Counselor without telling the client?
