Actually I found my therapist through a coworker. And I know for a fact that at least another friend to see her as well. Occasionally My friends and I even share a little inside joke about her methods and her office. We are pretty tightknit group Who are health conscious and aware. None of us really see therapy as a stigma.

But there's never been any confidentiality breach on my therapist side or our own for that matter. We never joke or talk about the details of our own therapy with each other.

My therapist once alluded to seeing multiple members of a single family and knowing her role to play in listening to each one individually with an understanding that each one has their own perspective on an issue and each one is valid. I took that to be her way of telling me that I can talk about my coworkers if I need to it's not a big deal. The very few times I've actually mentioned one of my friends names that I know she sees she doesn't blink an eye or make any hint of a suggestion that she knows who I'm talking about.
Thanks for this!
