As a rough swap at it, I would presume transference is taking place anytime you don't want to ask your T about something, like your inner child question. You are "transferring" some unpleasant attribute of a person from your past onto her, that makes you feel fearful or uncomfortable or embarrassed about it? And your reaction, your feelings, are kinda out of proportion to the actual situation. If T isn't the perfect person to answer that question for you, who is? So what is holding you back? Transference is.
Killed two birds with one stone, did we?
