Transference has never even come up within any of my T's and they've all been slightly different in their orientation. I really don't have transference issues with my T's that I've been aware of. I have no problem having secure attachments with others, and despite all the abuse in my background, the abuse wasn't at the hands of direct relatives. I grew up with a very secure family, was nurtured and supported. I'm guessing those kinds of factors have allowed me to just be in therapy with my therapists and they've remained my therapists in my mind. That's not to say we aren't "attached"; we very much are, but I've never seen it as anything other than a very healthy, supportive, helpful, learning relationship.
