Jenny, welcome to PychCentral. As SSM suggests it's almost an anomaly for feelings like this to NOT develop. The hard part for some people approaching their T about the topic is feeling embarrassed, vulnerable, resentful, or other discomfort. Think about an approach that works for you. Personally I find it helpful tell my T at various times, "This isn't rational but I feel X and it is frustrating/frightening/whatever and I want to understand it. Can you help? Have you seen this?" Not just transference but other cognitive/emotional areas benefit.
