When I told my T that I had consulted with another T, and this was after about 6 years of therapy, he was absolutely fine with it, said it was unnecessary to share any information about it, and displayed no interest in knowing who it was or whether I ever saw "her" again. I suspect that the involvement of more than one T at any given time in therapy may be more common than is thought. I don't think it's a problem to see whoever you want whenever you want to see them, and however you want to communicate (or don't) about the other(s). Just do what is best for you.

I suspect you are right about the more than one 2 being more common especially of one has special training in a specific area. I dont think it was common for my 2 to see more than one person (unless her initial response to my idea was that she thought I wanted to stop seeing her). EMDR T has been the second T multiple times. She sees clients just for Emdr.
