I don't think your T screwed up royally. I don't think this was a colossal f-up. I think your T made an assumption. You can correct his assumption if you like. I think this was a difficult topic for you to start talking about--maybe focusing on your T's words is helping distract you from continuing to work on this experience from your past. I have ways of avoiding hard topics in therapy too.

I hope you can get back to this really important topic from your past. Kudos to you for making a start on it. So hard...
