Please don't blame yourself for what happened. I suspect that whatever happened was more on her side than yours. After all, it's a therapist's responsibility to draw boundaries they can live with, and to redraw them, if necessary, as sensitively as they can and with the knowledge that a boundary tightening hurts a lot. And with more than enough explanation.
It just doesn't sound like she handled this well. I hesitate to judge her overly harshly, since my therapist on occasion does not handle things well. Could there be something going on in her home life that could be causing her to change her behavior? A stressor? Or is she getting older perhaps?
I don't mean to raise more questions. The important thing is that you hurt. And I'm very sorry you hurt.
