EVERYTHING that affects the client is grist for the therapeutic mill. It might not involve the client, but the client can still have feelings about it. In my case, this exclusion is directly related to the issues I am in therapy for, and she knows it. We have mutual friends. She might have guessed that one or more of them talked about it. Furthermore, the part of her FB page that showed a wedding photo is completely open to the public. She knows this, too. This could have gone very differently. For instance, she might have said, for my vacation this year, X and I are taking a honeymoon." Then we could have worked through my feelings from there. Instead, I am excluded AGAIN, and have to deal with all the meaning and ramifications of that by myself, because I won't see her until the first week in September.
