I agree with Nicolette,
If your T came right out and told you then it might as well went in one ear and out the other. If you think about it, you find it "on your own" and that is more rewarding then for some one to tell you.
Also, she may know that it would make you mad and it was not a head game she was playing but a way to help you understand yourself.
I've had about 12-15 therapists in the course of my PTSD both male and female and not one played any head games with me. They have challanged me, which is different than playing head games.
Take care
