Xenor,

  For beginning therapists, accepting that sexual attractions towards
  clients are natural and ok might be something to convey in this
  situation.

  I am wondering about the issue of working with clients who have been
  sexually abused, or where there is a suspicion that the client was
  abused.  In this situation, I would think that the therapist telling
the
  client about his/her sexual attraction would be inappropriate.  What
  would be the ethical thing to do?  Consult, definitely.  If the
 therapist
  is unable to contain his/her feelings, then a referral would be vitally
  important.

  Anne
