At the very end I thought I'd put a guilt trip on her and said I'm sorry we didn't get to have a full session on Thursday I'm looking forward to seeing you at 2 on Thursday.

Not sure if she will fall for the guilt trip, but at least you let her know that you noticed that she cut you short.

i don't agree with Brian37, expecting a 50 minutes session when you're paying for it is not expecting too much. I wouldn't dwell on it but, I think you should politely raise the issue for discussion. This could turn out to be a good opportunity to practice telling someone that you had an expectation of them that went unmet. If your T is skilled this could be a good exercise in direct communication and resolving conflicts that arise when you either appropriately or inappropriately had an expectation of another person that went unmet. If you don't talk openly about it, it could fester, and deteriorate your therapeutic relationship even more. You've already spent several days feeling like you are not important to her.
