Hi Tamar,
I think you explained the question and what you needed to talk about clearly in your post. If this accurately reflects what you said to your T than it's his fuzzy listening and not the way you said it.
It seems to me that he is reluctant to talk about his relationship with you in any context. He would like you to talk about your father, but not as it relates to him. Maybe he's so uncomfortable with it that his defense is to just say he doesn't understand what you're getting act.
I understand your frustration and all I can suggest is that you ask him what doesn't he understand. What can you clarify for him. That seems like a lot of work on your part though. Darn him. Maybe Annierose is right and you should find a therapist who does psychodynamic therapy. I know how hard beginning a therapist search (again) will be. Sorry, I wish I had some other ideas for you.
