If I was a therapist I would have a back door for clients to exit from. I think there are all kinds of potential issues that can occur when clients cross each others' paths. In addition, confidentiality is broken.
You've brought up an excellent point. T's seem to be intrigued and attentive when they have a new client to "figure out." But as therapy progresses it often seems to become just a job for the therapist. At that point, if the client feels like the therapist is treating the client as less interesting/less important don't many clients create crisis (either consciously or unconsciously) to "win back" the attention of the therapist?
