im sorry. i told my T i loved him in a parental way. he said he was touched and that it wasnt wrong. i was very scared to tell him this given my history, and i was scared it was wrong. i feel better that i told him. he hasnt changed in any way since ive told him. hes even given me a hug since then. i dont hug him much but i was having a hard time. my T is psychodynamic and a bunch of other things. i can see the complication with your paternal transference being with your MC. have you thought about finding a new one? i know thats hard to do though. just throwing out options
