I skipped out on an ex-T's sessions for about 3 weeks when we had a rupture. Even when he apologized on my voicemail and said he really thought we should talk through things (he had overreacted to, which he admitted to in his apology, and then had lectured me re: a thing I had said), I was not ready to deal with it or him. At the time I was very glad I did it because I wouldn't have been able to speak to him, or else I would have said things I regretted had I gone; it was better to pull back until I was ready to talk about it because I was royally pissed off and extremely hurt.
