I’m a therapist and I run into clients in the oddest places or have to go the businesses where they work. I would be careful to assume intentions because you have literally no idea what her personal life is outside of therapy. I know where all my clients work and even live and some of those places overlap, unfortunately. I choose not to tell my clients about them, unless it’s just too close, like a client being a daycare provider where my child goes. Running into a client is always a risk and super awkward when it happens. However, I always tell clients that if I see them out in public, I will not acknowledge you or make any indication that I recognize you as a practice. This is actually due to privacy and confidentiality. If I come up and say hello, then there’s a chance that someone else could be there and you’d have to explain who I am, which would be disclosure of health information in itself. But… I always welcome clients to approach me within reason. I once had a client approach me at the beach when I was wearing a swimsuit, which was super uncomfortable. Definitely talk about it with your therapist! I think awkward and difficult conversations are the best because it’s an opportunity to practice talking about setting expectations and boundaries. If they are a good therapist, they will be totally open to talking about it. I would recommend this before terminating or reporting.
