Yes I have! When I first started seeing my current therapist I experienced him as physically repulsive. I described it at the time as the opposite of erotic transference. I will have to see if I can dig up my old thread on this.

I think it a normal transference and it may pass as you work through whatever was triggering it. Mine did and I have pretty much the opposite of those feelings towards him now.

So long as he doing nothing unethical to prompt it, I would just notice the feeling, not judge it. If you can talk about it do, but I understand why that might feel uncomfortable. Don't worry about it, it might have some meaning for you that might be useful when it emerges. In the meantime just let it be.

*goes off to look for my old thread*
