My T. said my maternal transference gets in the way and blocks me from seeing her as caring since my mom wasn't caring. She did some reverse psychology on me which helped (I hated to admit) but it doesn't always stick. It sucks. It's almost like I can't recognize what she's doing that's caring? I can in other people, just not her - the one person I want it from the most.
