We have a local private therapy practice where we live in London. For a while DH saw a therapist there, let's call him Dr Jones.
I decided a few weeks ago that I might benefit from some therapy so signed up to see one of the other therapists there - let's call him Dr Smith. I told DH I was going as I am using family money to pay for it and DH agreed to it and said it was a good idea.
During my first session with Dr Smith he asked how I had heard of them and I told him that my DH used to see Dr Jones. My sessions turned quite serious with lots of conversation about DH and how his addiction problems affect me, including details of our sex life and some really private feelings about our marriage that I have harboured and not yet expressed to anyone except Dr smith.
Fast forward to today and DH bumps into Dr Jones in the street (where we live is like a village in London) and has a polite chat. While making conversation, DH says "my DW came to see another therapist at your practice," and Dr Jones apparently says "yes I know, he (my therapist) told me."
AIBU to find this a bit uncomfortable and unprofessional? That my therapist told DH's therapist that he was seeing the wife of the guy that he used to see?
