So your T's T friend automatically refers clients to... others. And what if the referred client then develops transference AGAIN? Would he/she be referred AGAIN? When will this road end?..

This is horrible isn't it! First of all wether your a counselor, psychologist, social worker, if your are in the business of messing with peoples psyche, than you should be full aware of transference and HOW COMMON it is. You should be totally open with dealing with it. I mean I do chemistry testing all da** day, even if I get scary results I still report it out and feel comfortable reporting that out for the sake of the patients, Why go into a mental health field and not be able to deal with TRANSFERENCE, MAKES NO SENSE!!!!
Okay, me off my soap box, hugs Hamster!
