Brian, I don't think the attachment is necessarily a function of Freudian transference. My T and I don't practice Freudian style psychotherapy yet I am totally attached to him. (We do therapy in the humanistic psychology model.) I wonder is your sexual desire for your T a form of attachment? I cannot imagine being attached to my T without the emotional component, but hey, everyone is different, and maybe this is what "attachment" looks like for you.
