I think therapists make mistakes and the really good ones owe up to them, apologize for them and then work to heal the rupture. That said, I also believe that mistakes are an important part of the therapeutic process. Most of us struggle with relationships. Many of us have been betrayed or had our ability to trust severely limited due to past experiences in relationships. The mistakes our therapists make with us gives us a very important opportunity to work through the inevitable "pitfalls" we all face when involved in a relationship. Rainbow, all the things you mention that you struggle with in your relationship with your therapist are things that trouble you a great deal. Isn't it better that you are having to deal with them in a safe, secure therapeutic relationship? The healing is painful, but you are digging down and really touching on issues that trouble you a great deal.
