Your feelings are absolutely valid. I think perhaps your T was trying to help you feel comfortable about talking about it by saying it happens a lot. Perhaps he wanted you to feel that you are not strange or abnormal? At any rate, it sounds like his comment failed to achieve what he was hoping for.
But your feelings about what happened to you are OKAY. You were hurt, confused, and helpless. And no one is ever ever supposed to hurt a child. EVER. It's abuse, regardless of who does it.
I'm so sorry that happened to you. I'm so proud of you for talking about it. It's no shame for you that it happened. It's not your fault. It's okay to talk about as much as you are comfortable.
