I work in a field where I am not a therapist but people are angry with me a lot. It is not an option for me to tell them to put their feelings on hold. It is literally my job to deal with how they feel in an effective way. I would not be ok with a t who could not handle my emotions without getting angry. So angry they can't talk to me. I do not pay for that service. Maybe others feel differently but someone shutting down how I feel because THEY are uncomfortable sounds like a bad situation. This isn't a friendship or real life it is a service.
