I think we are more transparent than we think, especially if we're in therapy for things like anxiety/panic/stress. Like you, I don't say how I feel when my therapist announces she'll be gone (never for a leave of absence, though, just vacation); she doesn't say don't worry, but like your therapist, she always says she'll see me soon. So yeah, I'm guessing that stuff gets broadcast pretty clearly even if we don't say anything.
