All of the above are good points. I know my therapists have all said very little until we were back in their offices. My recent usually just came to the waiting room and caught my eye and we'd go back; he only used my name if I didn't see him there for some reason. My pdoc is very similar that way. I think that is a privacy habit of not using a client's name where others could hear. If we talked in the hallway it was because I initiated it. As far as good-byes go, I honestly don't think there was much to it. Maybe a see you next time or something like that -- sometimes very little if I was not in a great head space.
