In reply to sexual element of 'transference' with therapist, posted by widget on January 4, 2008, at 9:05:57
Sexual transference is a really delicate subject, but one that definitely needs to be discussed.
I don't think you always have to be the one to bring it up. I've asked my T to help me bring up particularly sensitive topics, and she's done it. In an ideal world I'd be confident enough to do so myself, but to be honest, I'd *never* talk about sexual feelings for her if she didn't initiate sometimes. Maybe you could ask your T to do something similar? It's okay to work together sometimes to get things done, I think.
