I always call my T by her first name. When I first started seeing her she hadn't finished her PhD. so Dr. wasn't an option and I feel very relaxed with her. With my pdoc, I always call her Dr., it just seems more professional and she likes the title. With my addictions Dr., it's weird. She's kinda formal so I feel more comfortable calling her Dr., but whenever she calls me at home to cancel or reschedule an appointment or group she introduces herself as Bonnie, and I know other women in my addictions group call her by her first name - it's sort of weird.
