I assuming you are NOT a serial killer. Have you serial killed in the past? Do you have urges that you will? Do you have OCD? Sometimes people with OCD (I am one of them) have pretty bizarre fears. Is this what is going on?
I think she triggered something and you are freaking about it.
I really, really do NOT think that the office personnel is thinking this about you. Even if, your pdoc and T have written it in a file that they think you are a serial killer. Do you really think they would do that?
I really, really don't think that anyone thinks that you are a serial killer.
Because if they did, your pdoc and T would have talked to you about it. They wouldn't let their employees gossip about something like this! It's not appropriate office gossip.
I don't think anyone, but that silly secretary, who probably said it as a joke and then forgot she even said it, has had it even cross their minds.
Please don't let this keep you from getting therapy. It sounds like you like this T, if you've seen him/her for 4 years.
I can understand why this would upset you. I’m glad you posted.
In my opinion, it is OK to go back to that office on Monday with NO worries that anyone there thinks you are a serial killer OR inappropriate for reporting that secretary.

By the way no i am not a serial killer , have never considered myself as violent in any way!
I dont know if i have OCD per se , but i do have some rituals and definately have some bizarre fears, just dont think at this point any of that has come up in T or with the pdoc.
Intelectually i know that no one in that office has any concerns about me, especially in that sort of way. And i know for a fact that there is nothing in my records that would indicate anything even remotely close to what this lady said about me. Thats not the concern that i was trying to describe .. I guess what i was thinking when i said that "she has acess to my records " i was thinking more along the lines of .. just the fact that she can access my therapy notes and i dont feel confortable with that. Since there are very private , personal things in that file and i would never choose to share that stuff with someone so insensitive. As well as now that i have reported what she said , she would have access to things like my address and phone number ect..
