So I noticed this morning that I can't view my T's Facebook profile...I can still see her on the search but if I click her name, it says I can't view it...Did she find out I was looking at it and block me?!

I've got a ton of anxiety right now....I think I really screwed up.....

She may have just tightened her privacy settings way down in general. It might have been an awareness of other clients, not necessarily you, and she's just locked it down. My guess is that if she doesn't say anything to you specifically about it, she considers the problem resolved and isn't worried about it.
Thanks for this!

If she had blocked you personally, you would not be able to see her name in a search. (I just checked, with somebody who has blocked me.) She probably just made it private so only her contacts can view it, and there is no reason to think that has anything to do with you.
Thanks for this!

My facebook reminds me every now and then to change privacy, maybe that's why she did it?
Thanks for this!

I don't know what I would do if she said something...I'd probably just walk out of my session and never come back. I can't deal with anxiety of this. I really think I screwed up.

Sounds like just a change in privacy settings. I wouldn't worry too much about it.
Thanks for this!

What makes you think you screwed up? There isn't really any way for your T to find out you have searched her on FB.

Just because your t has tightened up her privacy settings on FB does not mean t plans to terminate with you. I understand the anxiety, but like other posters have said, if she doesn't say anything you can consider that she is ok. If it is really bothering you, you may need to figure out a way to bring it up with her. But you only have to do that if you want to.

Um, I'm afraid to ask...is there a way someone can know you were looking at their FB page?

I know when people deactivate their accounts it will say it can't be viewed when you try to view their profile.

I've calmed down a bit. Now her name doesn't show up in the drop down when I type it in the search bar so I think she may have just deactivated it.

I don't think people can know but sometimes I get paranoid that there's a way. Sometimes Linkedin scares me too. I have my profile set to not tell people when I view their profile but if you were to look at my T's profile, you would see a list showing "People also viewed" and I'm sure if she were to see that list, she would trace it back to me...

Looking at her profile picture on Facebook had a real calming effect for me so I'm sad I can't see it anymore. But honestly, it's probably better for my attachment that I can't....

I don't think that you need to worry about that. I doubt that a T would start to mentally chase clients that way unless it's driven by some strong specific personal feelings and then it's their issue not yours. There is nothing wrong about looking at public websites at all.
Thanks for this!
