Voce,
Did you ever give T2 permission to talk with T1? Especially written permission? Even post treatment, she can't do this if you didn't. She isn't even supposed to have identified you as a patient. We run into this all the time as kids age out of our program and we see them in classrooms. I have a teacher right now whose own child is in a K-classroom with a former agency client. She greeted the child and the K-teacher said something like, "oh, did this child receive services?" and my teacher had to essentially take the fifth. I think she said, "she wasn't ever my client and even if she was I wouldn't be able to share that with you." That is why we have so many things posted about patient confidentiality.
I like the idea of a letter to both Ts. I'd send one more to the health center asking for your file to be sent to you or your GP. If they deny this, I'd want the reason in writing. The minute you start asking people to put things in writing, they get a lot more cooperative.I'm sorry this has reopened old wounds. You have better things to focus on.
Hugs,
Daisy
