I think a lot of T's have "feelings" for their clients but I'm not sensing anything unusual in what he told you. It sounds like he has feelings that are within "normal" limits for a T and he's telling you that he will give what he feels is appropriate for a therapeutic relationship.

Conversation with my therapist:
Doc: "You know, for the past few weeks you've seemed very disconnected from your emotions when you're here."
Me: "I'm not disconnected from my emotions. I just don't feel anything when I'm here."
(Pause)
Me: "Doc, why are you banging your head against the arm of your chair?"
Doc: "Because I'm not close enough to a wall."
It's official. I can even make therapists crazy.
