Hello Trippin -
Since you just started with this therapist, and are uncomfortable with her, then it's a good time to keep looking. For me, personally, a therapist should always be supportive and empathetic, and when tough love is necessary it is done gently. I was lucky in finding a therapist who combined body, mind and spirit and she was comfortable to be around. I've since moved but if I need a therapist again, those would be my standards.
