I was not attached to either of the therapists I saw recently - but one gave out email and cell phone and the other gave out cell phone info for outside contact. They exhibited excessive and possibly exaggerated enthusiasm when I contacted them. Once after a motorcycle accident, the second one expressed dismay that I did not call her. I don't know what she could have done or why I would have called her, but nonetheless, she said that it was something clients do.
