I wonder if it’s really a modality issue. Like the attachment/transference stuff is usually the domain of psychoanalytic/psychodynamic therapists, yet you’re seeing a clinical psychologist with a focus on sports psychology. As if you’re seeing someone who specializes in reading glasses and hope he can also learn to work with astigmatism?

Just to clarify, sports psychology is just one of his focuses, also teens/young adults and couples. Which, yeah, not me...but he has a PhD in Clinical Psychology and has been practicing in that for 17 years, just some extra training/certification in the sports stuff. (Ex-MC also specialized in teens, incidentally.)
