I hate that your therapist wasn't "there" for you today in the way that you needed and should expect. I hate seeing the human side of my therapist ... when they are distracted, tired, or ill.
You are probably feeling ill because you are worried for your puppy. Anxiety gets the tummy juices flowing ... and that never feels good.
I do remember a time when I thought my therapist was distracted (years ago). The following session she apologized and told me she canceled the rest of her appointments that day after seeing me. My internal reaction was interesting --- on the one hand, I am glad she took care of herself and went home. on the other hand, i was glad i got to see her even though she wasn't herself ... so I felt "lucky" to see her (if that makes sense).
I guess what I'm trying to say, sometimes our therapists at their worse is sometimes better than no therapist at all.
Take care of youself. Eat better foods, try to rest. Your puppy will need you when she returns home.
