Is this unprofessional of a therapist?

Just had my first CBT session. When.I told the therapist I was taking Quetiapine she visibly reacted and put her hand to her face and exclaimed 'Oh no, that's terrible. Why are you taking that?'

I told her it was an adjunt to my Trazadone and to help with anxiety, and she said 'But it will make you feel awful'.

Should she have acted and said that, it's really upset me.

Plus in your first session she should have explained to you what her form of therapy involved and answered any questions you have. She should have told you what she is qualified in and if she was qualified to talk about your medication or recommend things like evening primrose oil she should have told you that too.
