My first T the whole time (3 yrs.) with her was spent getting me to take my meds, accept help, and trust the mental health system. I didn't want meds, certainly not AP's they were taking away who I was. They were taking away my eating disorder! Our conversations revolved around my distorted thinking (lack of AP), fear of getting committed, trying to get me to stay on medication. Not once did my therapist say it was short term. If she would have said she can't talk about I would be in a much worse situation now. If my other therapists would have said meds are a short term option until I figure out how to deal with life. I'd been in a worse situation.

I don't think it's outside T's scope to talk about meds. Without my first T, I wouldn't be on meds and probably hospitalized more then I have been. Talk to T about how that comment effected you. Was it meant to give you hope?
