Thank you both for your replies! I definitely think the dream was about maternal transference, the first part anyway, but I don't know why T was naked with a penis at the end. I don't think it was sexual as I was totally unbothered by it in the dream. In our last session, we were talking about my intimate relationships (or lack there of) and T asked me what I want out of a relationship. I said I wasn't really sure because when I imagine myself in a relationship it's like a different version of myself and the things I enjoy in the fantasy are things that would actually terrify me in real life. I'm wondering if the things I want in a relationship are the same things I fantasise about in the maternal transference (feeling loved, safe and protected). I will have to try and put my embarrassment aside discuss this in my next session. Hopefully T doesn't think I'm weird.
