Let us return to basics.
My point is that if... I said if... two persons are able to have an unlimited mutual trust, they are no more seen by an outsider as two persons but just One being having One will no matter to whom (of the two) he tries to contact.

If that outsider is a psychotherapist, they will still be billed as two people -- and likely for a long time as they have an unhealthy codependency.
