Well Peg, i'm not so sure about how to deal with the transferrance, but the part about "the hubby and KID standing in the way".....well, that TOTALLY set off ALL my mamma alarm bells...
So what I can add is 1. WHY does client even KNOW T got a kid?
2. What type of T is she (CBT, etc)? 3.When it comes to your own children.....well, its a WHOLE NEW BALL GAME. When the client said bout KID standing in the way.....the mothers instinct in your avg mother can be VERY VERY strong. I sometimes wonder if its even stronger in a mom who had difficulties in their own childhood. I wonder if thats the crux of the prob?....
I wonder if there have been other loose boundaries....
That book "In Session" is mostly bout long term T and transferrance, has your friend read it? Its so-so, but there ARE some VERY good points in it. I would HIGHLY recommend it if she does much long term T.I think it has some excellent points on how to handle these situations. I think its no longer in print but you can buy it used.
Hope this is of any use...
