Not much to add to what has already been said, but I do have "mother issues" and I do see a female T. I am very attached to her. I don't think it is about gender, but rather their skills, personality, listening ability, brain power, etc etc.
I initially choose a female T because I tend to flirt with men to get their attention. I didn't want to find myself sexually attracted to my therapist.
Pinkeye, maybe what you are feeling and/or describing are differences each therapist brings to the room based on who they are, life experiences, etc., not gender.
