I think that's wonderful. :) On your own you were able to sort out what she really was, and what was leftover feelings from other losses. You deserve to treat yourself for that!
It's a shame you didn't have longer to sort through these feelings, but maybe, as you said, it isn't her strong point anyway. And therapists who don't handle transference well apparently just end up doing harm if you bring it up. It quite shakes my unshakeable faith that everything should be discussed with your therapist.
And thank you, thank you, thank you, my therapist, for being who you are. You guys are rapidly shifting my transference from a maternal one to an idealizing maternal one. :)
