I didn't say anything to T, and I tried to stay out of sight till this person left, because I didn't know if she would want a reminder of that place.

What is proper etiquette in such situations? Do I say to T, "oh, I know one of your other clients"? Do I say hi to my fellow nutjob? I truly have no idea.
It's not a question of etiquette really. Since your T knows you were both in the "nut house" (with other squirrels?) together, you don't even have to worry about revealing something about the other person that they might not want known; thus, it's a non-issue. It's more along the lines of how it makes you feel either mentioning or not mentioning it to your T that you know that person. If it makes you self conscious, maybe mention it to your T so you can move beyond that feeling.

If it were me, it would spark my interest if I saw someone I knew from anywhere, and I would probably mention it to T, but there wouldn't be any discussion about it in my case. If I really got along with the person, I would likely say hello and strike up a brief chat. If I didn't like the person I saw, I wouldn't say anything to them and might be pissed off a little, but it wouldn't ruin my day and I wouldn't try to conceal myself.

Best!
