My T's approach is very verbal (sonetimes she talks more than me) so it felt different and she usually starts by saying "last session you were ______"

I don't mind; I mucked her around last week I don't blame her not wanting to talk about it with me.
I'd imagine it'd be useful to share your feelings and your perception with her. It appears that you're assuming she's not interested in talking with you about it. You might be right, but it'd be worthwhile to find out for sure so that your perception doesn't lead you down a path that affects you and your relationship with T in a deeper way. Ultimately, it's very telling as we tend to mirror these types of things outside of therapy. It's all good stuff to use as tools in therapy.
