I know it feels awful and scary being stalked, it has happened to me before. I believe most of your partner's clients do follow the rules I am sure. But you have to realize the nature of the business your partner is in, they are dealing with people who have emotional and physical problems and they don't always know how to control themselves because they are mentally ill or having a lot of emotional issues.
So I am sure this kind of thing, although doesn't happen every day or every month, to your partner, will probably happen again because of the work they choose to do. Is it right? NO , absolutely not. But also keep in mind that not all clients know the boundry lines either. My T has never told me I can't come to his house or call him at home. Would I do it, no, but I am not unstable or mentally ill, and know what is appropriate. But a lot of clients do not know what is and isn't appropriate behavior, heck that is why they are in therapy in the first place.
