No, I doubt it.
I like my T a lot but had strong negative transference with him at one point. I did not like him during the time when experiencing the intense emotion. Same with the past T.
In terms of negative transference, I don't think it's much different from their end except that they should manage it instead of act on it. In fact, I think some therapists have more problems with it than some clients.
