Hello Reddclay

I think that experienced psychodynamic/ Analytic /attachment/relational therapists who are trained to work transferentially,(and preferably have had their own in depth therapy) and understand about a regressive infant/maternal transference won't be phased by an erotic tranference - because it's normal! And, yes they will be aware of the possibility.

It can be hard for us to talk about as clients - but to do so can bring about great healing. Are you struggling to tell your therapist about it?

Thanks for this!
