Therapists seem to be preoccupied with liability. So there's that. Could also be a means to get feedback, but that would indicate cluelessness as HAL_900 suggested.

Therapists don't seem to understand that simply playing their standard role -- intensely attuned and focused on you and your needs -- is more than enough to ignite just about anything. And then, ignorant of this, they assume the "transference" is all about the client.

Therapists: you are seducing people left and right, wake up.
