Actually, I think this study noted that therapists actually report higher incidents of rupture than clients do statistically which has to do with therapists viewing the structure very much from their training about what the ideal session/relationship looks like. I think this is the one that also noticed less experienced therapists who tended to use techniques very by-the-book reported more ruptures than more experienced who were less likely to stick to the textbook and more likely to individualize.
On that note my brain is tired and I see a nap in my future.
