I find it hard to believe that she said you were perceiving the whole thing wrong?? Your perceptions are your own, and from what I heard you saying, she failed to show for your appointment.

I don't think one can pinpoint why some therapists do and some don't, and all people in general. To me, it would have been a common courtesy to apologize for not being there, and it would have been therapeutical had she validated your feelings. ((((Button))))))
