I experienced maternal transference occasionally with a male PDoc. I was having a difficult conversation..and he left and brought me a carton of milk. Lol

"Anger transference"- where you are expressing anger at your T but you are really not mad at them and instead mad at a person from your past?
I don't know. To be honest, I feel like the word "transference" is something that people on this site use to describe having any sort of feeling at all for their Which is a little invalidating in my opinion. I have tons of feelings for my T that are actually about her and not misplaced. Plus, the maternal transference I feel is very real. I see her as mom. Yeah she's not actually my mom, but that doesn't mean the feelings are false.
I don't know. Transference is clearly a real thing but I just feel like people say if a lot to try and "justify" having. feelings.
