And he's like, "You told me to be honest with you"...like snidely. Yes, I had asked him to be honest with me. I didn't think he'd shame me with it. Instead of having a real discussion about why I feel afraid or ashamed...he stopped it with a guilt trip on me.

WTF??? That MAKES HIM feel bad and sad??? this guy is the worst therapist ever. I am not kidding. my T would be thrilled if I actually felt something in session. okay, my T does sometimes say these exact same words, but not AT my feelings, it's at something that happened to me, and he's maybe showing me how a normal person would feel? OMG. I do not get this guy at all. Show your T this post you wrote. These are clear descriptions of gross incompetence. YOU are a better T than this goof.
And what is with the religious pictures? They have their place, but a T's office I don't think is the place. What did MCL's T say - if he's hurting you, YOU have the obligation to yourself to leave.
