I went through a period where I had a therapist that just didn't seem to be right for me. For me it was really obvious, even after like... five sessions. The bottom line is that if you don't feel comfortable or like this therapist is right for you, you shouldn't feel stuck. There's nothing wrong with finding another therapist who you feel would be a better match for you. I think it's often hard to find one you feel 100% comfortable with, but if you dislike talking with this therapist, don't feel bad about going to a different one.

Also, I think it's GOOD to cry. When you're talking to someone it's completely normal to feel the need to cry. It's another way of letting out your emotions. I doubt any therapist would see you crying as a negative thing. They may actually see it as something that can truly help you connect with and let our your emotions.

If you feel like you could stick with this therapist for a bit longer, stick with her a bit and see if you end up liking her a bit better. If not, there's nothing wrong with finding someone who can better help you.

Good luck
