It's so hard. Being calm and reasonable is probably the last thing you feel like being right now. But you do have some very good things going for you, which are real and true, and which could form the basis of future work with him. I was thinking of the good quality of the relationship with him in the past, and the fact that you are aware of important changes in yourself as a result of your work with him. These very positive things would be what means the most to him as a therapist.
At this point, with several more sessions, I would apologize for the phone call, as Seldom suggested, and then concentrate on those good things. Right now isn't the time for no-holds-barred, anything-goes sessions. Wouldn't it be worth trying?
