I think her word choice was less than felicitous. But I wonder if her intent was to help you along the lines you mentioned in this post.

You say you've realized these things since you started therapy. Do you believe they are true? Or do you think it's something that this therapist (but not your other therapist) believes? If you think this therapist is missing the mark about your issues, or is not helping you with them, or if you do not believe your respect for her is sufficient to do therapy, perhaps it might be good to assess what she does bring to therapy with you, and if she's the right therapist for you.
But if you think that this is something that should be addressed in therapy, it might be worth a discussion with her about why she seems to be being more blunt about it at this time. (Assuming she is.)
