There is an opportunity here to explore with T what "being put in the corner" does to Granite, and I think she should use that if she can.

FANTASY DIALOG:

Granite: Last week I was triggered when I found the chair in the wrong place and it wrecked the whole session. I thought you had put me in the corner deliberately. I felt (insert your feelings here).
T: I'm sorry. It was an accident. But let's talk about it.
i think my T would probably say something more like "oh really ,what was going on?"then she would sit back in her chair stare at me with arms crossed and wate for an answer and i would more or less be like this
