I think there is a type of therapy where the therapist is very confrontational... I think it's call Short Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (although irc there is a stepped version for long term treatment).

In any case, to me it doesn't actually sound like you want your therapist to be honest and tell the truth based on what you are expecting/wanting him to say. You seem to have insight that this is about recreating trauma and wanting to quit, so I wonder what the dissonance is here. I wouldn't conceptualize this issue as wanting him to tell you the truth and be honest.
