Running into your therapist out in public can feel a little surreal, like, wait, you exist outside the office Suddenly they’re just a regular human grabbing coffee or standing in line like everyone else.
A quick smile or wave? Absolutely fine.
Your privacy? Still protected.
Confidentiality? Fully in place.
If your therapist doesn’t come up to say hi or seems to give you space, it’s not distance, it’s intention. They’re protecting your confidentiality and allowing you to decide what feels comfortable in that moment. 💛
