It’s too bad you didn’t go to a psychodynamic therapist. It sounds like to me he is saying he is fine with helping you as long as there aren’t going to be romantic feelings.
Isn’t that a good thing?

“Saying that he is fine with helping you as long as there aren’t going to be romantic feelings?”

Psychoanalytic/psychodynamic - Freud and Jung and Rank, etc.? Isn’t transference very, very ‘old school?’ I’ve never had romantic feelings for any of my shrinks. I’ve liked some more than others (usually because I find things more in common with some more than others).
