I'm so glad to hear you had such a good session.
I think the gender of the therapist can make a bit of a difference, but probably the connection is more important. As for a sexual maternal transference... it seems that people can experience erotic transferences that don't follow their usual orientation. So it's possible for a straight woman to have an erotic transference for a female T, even if it's a maternal transference. It's even possible to have maternal transference for a male T. I think it takes a bit of getting used to, but it starts to makes sense when you work through your feelings.
Well done: you worked hard for that great session. You really deserved it!
