Maybe it might be wise to change the kind of therapist you are using. There are other therapists who use different kind of therapy and who welcome transference, as it is a golden opportunity for a deep healing. Psychodynamic does that but I am not sure if this is the right kind of therapy for you.
Do not despair, interview some therapists and make sure that you mention transference and how they deal with it.
I think you might be confused with a different mode of therapy Flower. In psychoanalytic/depth therapy, transference and feelings about the relationship are worked with. In fact, transference is a. key component in psychoanalysis.
