And maybe I get this wrong. Maybe T feels comfortable enough to trust me with the reason and to talk to me. Maybe she thinks we feel comfortable enough to reschedule if that fits better with our other plans. Thinks that flexibility should come from both sides. I absolutely don't know. But I don't think T would hurt me is she knew she would.
I don't think it's emotional blackmail--not intentionally, anyway. Maybe T DOES feel comfortable telling you the reason--heck, maybe she feels comfortable cancelling for a non-emergency reason because your cancellation let her know you were in a good enough place to postpone, to not be desperate for the session to come. Who knows.

Mostly I'd try not to overthink it (easier said than done, I know!)
Thanks for this!
