I may have said this already, but I had a non-existent relationship with my mother and just hated her. I had problems with women all my life. When I looked for a therapist, I only considered men and older men at that, because I knew on some intuitive level that I wanted a father-figure (my own father was abusive, but occasionally nice and certainly more emotionally available than my mother). I don't think I could have worked with a woman initially. Now I could, but then I couldn't.
