I find the whole notion of inducing and then "managing" transference to be quite bizarre. Plus what specifically is the methodology, what are the risks, what sort of hang-ups or wounds does the T have that might intrude, and how do you know what sort of outcomes a given therapist has had with this? Is it enough for the therapist just to say "yea I do transference" and then embark on a months- or years-long relationship where the client could wind up in any number of dangerous or painful scenarios? I've tried to ask some therapists about attachment in therapy, and mostly they talked in metaphors or vague language.
