Well, it's a little more specific than that, I think (though I am definitely no authority on this) - it's feelings that are rooted in a relationship with somebody else, past or present, that are transferred onto the therapist. Or onto the client, in the case of the T. A T can presumably have "normal" positive or negative feelings about a client, that aren't countertransference.
Thanks for this!
