Absolutely yes. I see it in my T. I think countertransference of this nature can be positive or negative in a counseling relationship depending on the 'wellness' of the T, their awareness of it, and how it is used to help the client move forward. Nothing in therapy needs to primarily benefit the therapist. The focus should always be on what is most helpful and healthy for the client and if this type of countertransference is helpful, I see no problem with it (within reason).
Thanks for this!
