Now, I can imagine my T saying something like this to me. In the same context that she said, "chaotic, I am NOT a complete stranger."

NO! This is totally not appropriate and would have got a stong reaction from me...even now in my more grounded state. If your T gives you the creepy crawlies...listen to your gut and get out of their. The first lesson I learned in therapy was to trust those viseral sensations. Your body knows what is life-giving and life-taking...its just hard to sort through the mental noise the brain creates to really listen to it.
