More specifically, how did you get over it? My particular brand of transference is Def. of the romantic nature. It's really driving me crazy and I can't shake it. My T will be leaving before too long, it's bad enough that I'm going to have to grieve the loss of someone who has helped me SO incredibly much (quite a painful situation that I am not looking forward to) I would really rather the rest of my sessions not be "tainted" by my transference issues.

Talking to the T about it isn't an option for me (long story , just please trust me on this one)

Also, while I have you here....for those of you who lost a therapist they were really close with...how long did the grieving process last? Any tips or tricks on how to make it a little easier on myself? I know myself too well, and I know it's going to be a horrid situation for me - at least for a little while.

Thanks in advance for any input.

P.S. I Could totally use a hug too
