Answering your question a different way, in an "at will" employment state like California, you can be fired for no reason whatsoever. Without knowing about or seeing the worksheet and the responses one cannot tell if it was relevant to your work and your capacity to perform it. If you really don't want to speak to the psychotherapist, you might want to start looking for another job.
