Hi, Sharon: I dislike the words, transference/countertransference because unless we are using the Freudian meaning (someone reminds us of another person, and so we relate to the t in the same way)......we experience transference/countertransference in ALL relationships..simply feelings.
Sounds like it would to okay to tell your t; I am sure she will understand.
(As an aside, I told my t I was in love with him 4 years ago; could write a book about THAT!)
I read (and loved it) that the therapy room is the only place we call love....by another name.
Hugs, Sassy
