Some therapists work from the theory that the patient should be stable/able to control mood dysregulation before working on trauma. I'd suggest that maybe this is where she's coming from except that she's willing to suggest someone else for you to work with? Was the additional therapist your idea or hers?
I don't know, if it were me, I'd talk to her more about this before looking for another therapist to work with at the same time.

The additional therapist was her idea. I explained to her why I felt like having another T would be weird and told her another professional told me it is a bad idea, and she said she understands where I am coming from but her and the center I am at recommend it. I only agreed to look at a list of therapists my mom found and when I emailed T yesterday she said I should make some calls and set up some appointments. What? I never even agreed I would see another therapist, I agreed to looking at a list.
