I don't think I've heard my T refer to me as anything but I think if she were to, she'd say "patient" given her psychoanalytic background. I seem to be in the minority but I actually prefer the term "patient" as it implies a level of care is being provided to me. "Client" sounds like a business relationship and therapy is so much more than that.

She refers to everyone as “her people.” I really like that.

She calls me King Samson the magnificent. Or at least that's what I'm trying to get her to call me instead of "Sam" or "sammy" (I've never heard her refer to me as patient or client).
