My T never apologizes , and he was trained not too, but I hope yours does. Your boundaries separating work from personal life are sane and sensible.
Your T should read Gavin De Becker's The Gift Of Fear, about stalkers and men who push social norms etc little by little.
My T ( who has 2 kids) once told me (who lost a baby and got a divorce bc of fall out and has zero kids) that he thinks women biologically want children more than men do. After fake-calmly asking him if he was mirroring something I said or if that is his reAl opinion, I told him I didn't know if I could work on baby issues with someone so conventional.
It was just a really bad week/ communication day; we moved past it, and moved on. I didn't lose trust forever, but yet I recall it as not hour finest hour.

I once told my ex-T that I sometimes feel alienated from the rest of society because I have no desire to do 'normal' things like get married and have children. His response was "it's not too late, [Luc]"...
Which of course was basically proving my point in the most infuriating way.
Sorry OP, veering off your thread topic a bit there. I think your T handled that whole thing really badly, and I hope she has reflected on it and that you have a good session with her.
