Yes, I do know therapist can feel love for their clients. I have long-term friendships with all of my therapists, and I am very comfortable knowing they love me and my family. In fact, just a few minutes ago, I received a message from my last therapist wishing us a Merry Christmas. We Facebook these days (it's been years since therapy ended). He had happened to be watching the symphony Christmas program on television, and I happened to get a fair amount of camera time this year. He was letting me know he enjoyed the program and had been thinking about us, knowing my husband recently had surgery. He asked about our sons and my father. He cares. And in my experience, that love and caring isn't unusual.
