I would assume CBT tends to be less likely to deal with these things?
....but is anyone ignoring these things in their therapy?

I never had any transference issues with any of my Ts (I think I've had 4 over a span of a few decades) except the one that encouraged me to lower the boundaries. And I didn't explore the issue with the one when it happened, because she didn't recognize it and so wouldn't talk about it.
