If not, before you do, I would have in my mind what kind of response that you want your therapist to provide to it.
What, exactly do you want to get out sending it? What would make it safer for you to continue with her versus not?
You do sound pretty confused and upset, what, in her response could help you to feel less so?
If you know, then I would likely include that in the letter. Specific points where she can help to move foreward.
Good luck.

I have already sent this as a reply. I guess I just kind of want her to answer that last paragraph. Does she think we can continue. Does she see it as something we both have to work on.
I would like those answers to be yes. But she has said time and again that she doesn't feel like she has to apologize for who she is. And I do think I need to work on accepting her/other people as they are because I can't change them. But I think I have little doubt that some of her behavior recently is not therapeutic. I would like an acknowledgement that I'm not crazy. She has said that she would try to be more supportive, but as evidenced by Friday, it's not happening. Or our ideas of that are just so far apart that it is impossible to continue.
