All this sounds quite immature to me. Was it a young therapist / office staff? I doubt that most Ts / offices would make direct and recurring comments like that. I think many people tend to form judgments based on someone's clothing but rarely voice it critically unless it is in some kind of fashion-related industry or, again, very young populations. I personally would just tell them directly that I am not interested in superficial comments on my style and please keep it to themselves.
