When a child part is out or when I am in an emotional flashback I have paternal transference to him. When a teenage part is out I have erotic transference to him. When my best adult self is finally in the drivers seat and that is far a few between, I just enjoy him as a kind hearted human being that helps me and I would enjoy having a regular friendship with.

When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
