from time to time I have asked my therapy professionals if there was ever times when they wished they were not sitting at that moment to a clients problems and they have all told me yes those times do come.

Therapists are human beings so they just like anyone else have times when they would rather be doing something else then doing their jobs. But because their job IS to sit in a room and listen to a clients problems they do things that will help themselves to be 100% with that specific client for example one therapy professional that I had scheduled her clients 10 minutes apart so that she the therapy professional could have some down time/ relaxing time between clients. Another one would tell me right out - "you jnow what my mind is not on other people today and I would rather be here with you when I can give you my all so how about we reschedule.

Personally I have never taken it personally as in the therapist didn't want to be with me. But maybe thats because I have had so many therapy professionals in my life so that I don't expect to me their number one priority all the time because I know they have lives and problems of their own that sometimes interferes with therapy schedules and sessions and so on.

I don't know why it has upset you but since it does maybe this is something you and your therapist could look more into for you.

Hang in there.
