I would be concerned that in going back, he would turn this into a learning experience for you--as in you getting your voice back--rather than a total and complete admission of his ignorance and incompetence as a therapist for women who have been sexually assaulted. No one misspeaks about telling a woman they should have said no more forcefully. That came from his own belief. I would just hate to see him turn this around as a learning experience for you. You can learn from it by walking away from this kind of attitude, not by submitting to his ideas for how you should heal--which feels like more male dominance. He doesn't get to tell you how to heal.
