Have you talked to your T about it at all? That's what has helped me the most (paternal transference for marriage counselor that at one point had an erotic/romantic component too). There are lots of posts on here on dealing with transference (and in the Romantic Feelings for my Therapist subforum--some of those are more maternal/paternal, too). I'd also suggest checking out the Tales of a Boundary Ninja blog--she has lots of posts on transference that really helped me understand. Here's one of them
