i am sorry things went so badly...emotionally at least for you. i can say practical things your adult will understand, like she was sick and probably feeling less able to cope, etc etc. But i know it's hard. i don't understand the whole "little girl" thing, but i do understand the irrational fear of abandonment. i recently saw my pdoc and it went badly... we argued and he said things that made me fear he was angry and would leave me. i have been with him ten years and i don't even have issues regarding child trauma. i had to call and talk to him and ask if he was mad.
So don't feel bad.. it happens to all of us.
But the only way around it is through it, and that means talking to your T about your fear. The issues raised that day will have to be dealt with over time, but the immediate fear has to be eased.
