I don't know... I think therapists are sometimes wrong when they deny people's reality.... especially if they don't do it in a kind or gentle way. My former T said to me that he thought I would defend my parents and say "they weren't that bad" ... but later on he got fed up with me expressing anger and said he had no empathy towards me .... because I didn't have empathy for them ???!! (amongst other reasons.... I guess my T and I just wound each other up)
Don't take too much notice of my ramblings, most therapeutic relationships work out pretty well I have been told.

Take care,
