I donīt know if they classifies as erotic transference but I can feel like "a warm feeling in my chest" when thinking about her and I realise I still idolize her a bit.

I really liked her and I felt she opened up things I didnīt think of before. My thoughts of her are so intense sometimes even as much time has passed and I know itīs transference.

The hard thing is that my former T was the one terminating, she suddenly said she wasnīt the right T for me and she recommended me another kind of therapy. Thatīs why, even if I thought about it, I donīt want to contact her again and I therefore need another T to take me through those intense feelings for my former T.

Is that at all possible? How would that be done if possible?

Has anyone else experienced this?
I'm getting ready to do that with a new T. The T. I think I'm going to meet with said she can help me process the transference feelings I had for my exT. I think you will have to ask a potential T. if they can do that and find someone who is willing. I know how hard it is and how hard it is to look for someone. But, it sounds like it would help you.
Thanks for this!
