In my case, I thought it was paternal transference. Perhaps it's the eyes of a child...

I loved feeling like that in the transference and really miss it. Still have the teddy bear feelings briefly, but it felt good to experience my child self that was repressed, or frozen, at a very young age. Wish T would let me go back there and finish integrating those parts-it felt so positive.

Enjoy it while it lasts, right?[/QUOTE]

I totally relate to this. This is me in every session with my T. I do love the transference feelings. I don't ever want it to go away.
