emotional transference OR: transferential dependency
Explanation:
'Emotional transference' is a common term, which subsumes the idea of dependency. Less commonly, you could say 'transferential dependency' to describe a more specific situation. In the first case, 'dependency' is redundant, and in the second case, 'emotional' is redundant.

Examples of 'emotional transference':

the dependent nature of his/her/their emotional [object] transference


Explanation:
"Transference" and "emotional transference" are the terms used in the context of psychology. "Transferential," while also used in such contexts, seems less common, and seems to yield an awkward rendering of the posted phrase.

In this regard, it is telling that the phrase "transferential emotional dependency" produces exactly zero Google hits.

It seems to me that a more natural rendering would be along the lines I suggest.
