[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is not a hard rule against this, but it is problematic because it can create conflicts, complaints to the licensing board and/or lawsuits depending on circumstances.

Are you sure that your husband's therapist knew he was your husband when the therapist agreed to see him? S/he may not have made the connection if you have a common last name and you haven't been seeing them for several years now.[/quote]

I would add that if you make a complaint to the therapist and threaten a further complaint to the licensing board, they are likely to take the initiative to end the therapeutic relationship with your spouse and recommend other therapists to treat him. Whether or not they would disclose the reason for ending the therapeutic relationship with him would obviously impact your relationship with him.

But in any case, even if they've made the connection that they treated this man's wife previously, they should not be disclosing ANYTHING from your therapy with him now.[/quote]
