Sounds like this might be a big part of it. I've been absolutely blown away by some of the transference feelings I've had. I just can't
believe the power of these!! If it
is transference, that's probably a sign of progress. Might feel kind of weird, but it seems to happen all the time. If it concerns you, maybe bring it up next session?
