I think it's common throughout the therapy process to have the feeling as though you are "spinning your wheels". Therapist often have different names for that (the one that often applies to me is resistance) and accept that as part of the process.
You don't need to worry about what your therapist is thinking or feeling. She isn't judging you. She expressed that she was confused and from her perspective, she thought the relationship was moving forward. I would call and clarify that you do want to see her again.
Try not to expect break-throughs at every session. It's a relationship and it needs time to develop and you need time to trust the relationship (your emotional unconscious self).
Good Luck and I hope you do call and see her again.
