This may have been asked before, I am not sure. But, do you think a therapist intentionally triggers you, so to open up old wounds and 'heal' them more effectively..? Or something...?

I am really really struggling with a lost session due to poor scheduling.. I don't think I have experienced this strong a feeling from any part of therapy. But it has really really messed me up good. I was going well, had motivation, my walls were coming down a little. Then I got rescheduled and I basically felt the walls shoot back up and have been a hermit for the last 2 days. My first instinct is to run, cancel all future session and move far far away, because without T, there is no one else for support anyway.. This isn't going to happen obviously. But. Mmmm.

Has she triggered something or what? How do I get through this?! I need to be productive, I cannot continue to hermit for the next 2 weeks until I am
able to go back. We have briefly emailed 'wait it out, it will pass' was what I got. It has not proven to be helpful. I don't know if she gets the impact it is having on me, or if she is trying me..

Help. Plz. Anyone else experienced being triggered and left?
