Slugdoo, your T's comments sound so strange and out of place in a therapy relationship, I can't imagine what possessed him to say such things. They sound cruel and uncalled for, extremely.
If he says things like that to you, no matter what the frustration, he needs to rethink how he carries out therapy-- those comments sound much more like what someone says impetuously (and insensitively) in a personal relationship than a therapeutic one. Does he understand the responsibility and the approach he needs to have, of being careful and aware of your needs and limitations?
Could there have been some reason he was really off, today-- perhaps some internal pressure that made him fly off the handle?
He seems to have lost control in a very mean way. Can you can find a way of seeing that it's not your responsibility or wrongness that led him to behave so badly.? Because it isn't that at all. Those things aren't things I would say to anyone, much less someone I had commitments and responsibilities to and for.
I'm so sorry you had to go through that.
