Yeah. I don't think that I would like it if a T or p-doc disclosed his feelings for me. Well I might get off on it slightly (depending on what the verdict was) but I don't think that it would help me much. Unless the discussion was about physiological arousal - proper 'feelings' though would be a bit much...
I think that it may well be profitable to talk about why I would get off on that though. I know I have serious issues around being attracted to father-figure types because of my abuse history. Don't feel anything for peers and would like to change that so I figure I will probably need to process that one day. I think I would probably prefer to process it with a female clinician though because if I was working with a guy and he jumped my bones I would reciprocate and it would mess me up bigtime.
