Yes. In fact I've told my T I love her, as my therapist, or in a therapeutic way.

When she's used the word "love," either to say (or write) she loves me, or how she has used it at the end of a few Emails "Love, T", I raise an eyebrow because I don't believe it, but find it nice for her to say. Ts have many clients. Clients (typically, ahem, stopdog) only have one T. I'm reading a book right now that has a chapter that discusses just that. Anyway, my point being I believe it's much easier for us to love them, yet my T has said it is her job to "show me" love in my therapy. I don't remember how exactly she said it... because I told her it was NOT her job to love me. Hey, I'm hard to love, what can I say? Too much baggage.... lol
