Attraction to therapist?

Posted by Ladybelle31 on August 9, 2009, at 18:53:20

I have been having a hard time identifying with words my feelings of attachment towards my therapist-I know this sounds stupid but I can't figure out if I'm viewing him as a father or a boyfriend/husband figure. He's probably 20 years older than me and is happily married with two
kids, but he doesn't look at all like my dad. He's cute and and attractive looking and I admit I like dressing up and looking pretty at our appointments--but its not really sexually driven and I'm a Catholic--I guess my question to others is if anyone has any insight on why I am having a difficult time recognizing my feelings with him as either being in love with him or wanting him to be my father, so I can confront them in therapy and move on in a healthy way.
