My therapist’s wife is a therapist and I knew this before I even met him because I agonized for about a year about whether or not to start therapy and I did a lot of research during that time. They have different last names but I had looked each of them up individually and liked them both and then somehow realized they were married. Given the number of T’s in my area, it’s sort of odd that I had them both on my list. I honestly thought I’d choose her because I sort of thought I should see a female T, but when it came down to it, I contacted him on what seemed like a whim.

Anyway, when I was a teenager (many years ago) a couple year after my dad died I saw a therapist for a single visit. I went to his house where he saw clients and when I arrived, he said I would be seeing his wife instead, because as a young female they had decided it would be better for me to see another female. I never went back after that one visit and I don’t remember what they looked like or even what their ages were. But, I always wonder if it could have been my T and his wife. It’s in the same neighborhood where he lives and close to where I see him. I know it doesn’t matter, but I think about it off and on. I wonder if I should bring it up just to get it off my chest? I also wonder how common it is for T’s to be married to other T’s. Is your therapist married to a therapist?
