Change therapist. If any therapist told me to do 10 even if it hurt at 5 I would fire them. Plain and simply. No second chance and I would likely tell them directly what and why I am doing it. If they don't believe that you hurt at 5 reps, then what else are you telling them that they don't believe.
My therapist is great and knows I start slow but normally pick up the pace. I am compliant and do my exercises at home and will increase reps at home as I can tolerate. I always finish well, so the process works for me and the therapist trusts me. You deserve nothing less.
