Yes, it's a tough thing to process. For me, I had no choice but get past it because one day my T mentioned that her daughter was going to a new school (a very small, private, family one) and it was the one my kids went too!!! The first couple of times I saw her, I ran like h*ll, but I got used to it. But at that time in therapy, I didn't want her to be outside the therapy box.
Now I don't care. I'd love to run into her. Surprised I haven't. Our kids don't go to the same school anymore (wah, they grew up).
Now, as to my pdoc. I'm at the stage where I don't want to know ANYTHING about his outside life. It's startling when I've seen him on TV talking about some study he has been involved in, and I admit it panicks me, but I don't want to ever run into him with his wife and kids. No way; he's a robot.
