Two come right to mind. When referring to the legacy of child abuse, my therapist, in a moment of stunning insensitivity told me that it was like my father was in bed with me when I had sex with my husband. She had misunderstood my prior comments and that was a huge gaffe. That was the closest I've come to termination. She eventually apologized, that breach took us a long time to work through.

The second runner up was her saying "I am tired of YOU YOU YOU," by which she says she meant tired of my accusatory statements blaming "HER HER HER" for therapy going badly. Worst case, that was a hell of a Freudian slip, best case, it was just a really poor way of expressing herself. We talked through that one too.

I hate ruptures, ha, but, they do heal, and we're doing well. For every one insensitive thing, she's surely said 100 helpful ones.
