She almost never smiled and she wasnīt caring, like asking me something like "did your trip here go well?" or similar. Also, she started and ended the session in the exact minute although I had said during the session that I feel rejected if a therapist needs to end the session exactly on set time.
She didnīt say anything nice at the end like "have a nice weekend" but just a lame handshake and a goodbye.

My T tends to be this way, especially with new clients, because it signals that it's not a social relationship and also doesn't waste time on small talk. People can spend a lot of time talking about random things especially if they're nervous, so it's better to get to the point. It was kind of off-putting for me at first but he's a good T once I got used to it.
I can't see what's wrong with ending on time--I think Ts should keep to their schedule.
