My therapist tries not to say things like that, because I've told him that normalizing sometimes sounds like minimizing, and whatever other people experience, it still hurts *me*. Maybe she's being respectful of the fact that your experience is *your* experience. And that there are reasons for it, and possible ways to help you.
I hope it's not too upsetting, though, given that she's going on vacation. Therapist vacations - bah, humbug.
