Like Kit, I've also talked to a temporary T about my struggles with my current T being away. I also discussed my attachment to him, and my fear at the time that I was somewhat dependent on him. But I only talked about that after confirming with her that she wouldn't talk to him about the content of our session (I wanted to be in control of sharing that information with him, if I chose to)--in the US, we have to give explicit permission for them to share information.


If you do choose to work with a temporary T while yours is away, think about whether you'd want them to talk with your regular T about what you discuss.
