My old school T would want me to talk about it a lot. She'd continually try to bring it up and get me to talk about it. I was very uncomfortable with it until my last year of working with her. I then would talk about it a very little bit but it was weird because I honestly didn't feel much for her. I did feel something but it was more of an attachment to the idea that maybe she could help me rather than an actual attachment to her. I don't know how to explain it.
TT and I never discussed it. LCM and I do talk about it. It comes up casually in session but isn't the focal point unless I am upset with her. She feels that I use the topic of our relationship to deflect talking about harder issues which is absolutely true.
