Hi folks,

We start sub-forums when we see the need for them. While I appreciate the community's input and feedback on things, we generally don't require it in order to take action on behalf of the larger Psych Central community and website (of which this is part).

I thought the transference issue was clarified by its complete removal from the name, description and introductory post to the forum. The new forum is meant to discuss romantic feelings toward one's therapist. While it may indeed include transference, it is not a requirement of the new forum. Transference topics can continue to be posted here in the main forum, but topics having to do with attraction, romantic or sexual feelings toward one's therapist should be posted in the new forum.

Thank you,
DocJohn
