For me, I guess it took about 6 months! I was so resistant that I didn't even think about liking her. Once it kicked in, it was not a good thing. I thought I was losing it! I told her about it, we talked about it, she was okay with it and didn't get creeped out. More than a year later, I am still not over it by any means. I wish I was.

I don't want to think of her other than just being my therapist. I don't have any weird feelings for my MD or any other professional in my life, so why her?

I think that I am thinking transference always means 'sexual or sensual feelings', but I know that its not. That's just what I have experienced for the most part.
