Some modalities don't work with transference, but he couldn't make his mind up so I think him saying there was no value in it was defensive rather than anything to do with his modality (I felt he was winging it a bit in terms of theory).
I think the reason he was uncomfortable was because of countertransference issues which he didn't admit to or deal with. This was confirmed to me when he contacted me out of the blue over a year after termination . All about his needs.
I really hope your T handles it well. There seems to be a real lack of consistency in the field. Wishing you luck
