It always seems that you talk about these BLATANTLY OBVIOUS cases of therapists being utterly unprofessional. But erotic countertransference / transference isn't always an entirely bad thing. It is just a phenomenon that indicates that there is something going on between therapist and the client. When I hear you say that you have never had any sexual thoughts about clients or do not experience sexual attraction to your clients, I also wonder if this is something that you are not willing to admit to the public and/or to yourself and if you think that having sexual thoughts in itself is somehow unprofessional or untherapeutic.
