Hi everyone,

I'm wondering how unethical it is to contact your therapist after termination. I'm not planning to do this anytime soon --- that would be too weird for me. However, the therapist I saw at my University Health Center was one of the most influential people I have ever had in my life.

I am currently writing a work that I hope to publish one day, and I'm basing one of the main characters on her. I'm not using any identifiable information. When/if my work ever gets published, I'd like to let her know that I based on of the characters in my works after her.

Would this be weird/awkward or do you think she would appreciate it? Would it be unethical?

Please be honest. Thanks.
