I'm so sorry, SD. You must be terribly hurt.
I have to say, some of what he said to you just doesn't ring true for me. I don't mean that I don't believe you -- I mean that he wasn't telling the truth. I can promise you that I think about my job ALL the time outside of work and I'm not a therapist. I don't know anyone who doesn't think about work stuff after hours. Our brains, in my opinion, are just not made that way.
So I have to conclude that there was something else going on with him today and he took it out on you -- possibly because he was frustrated with you or possibly because he is more attached to you than to other clients and it somehow felt safer to take it out on you (or he didn't have his guard up like he would with others). Does that make it okay? Absolutely not. Imo, he should apologize profusely AND refund your money for today's session.
