Is it possible that these therapists are actually frustrated at the situation because they have hit the wall in trying to help you and they don't know how to move forward. That the frustration or anger you are feeling is not actually at you per say but the situation and their own limitation.

When my T was suddenly recommending hospitalization to me at early (I guess last, since it's 2017!) year, I was really upset with her. And she'd seem annoyed with me, which also upset me. The next session she said she recommended that because she wasn't sure if she was helping me enough (I'd been seeing her for 4 years) and thought maybe I needed a higher level of care than I could get from seeing her (and MC) once a week. She said she felt like she wasn't doing enough, so this was more about her than me. So it's possible this could be going on with your T, Mona.
