That would be standard in medical practice (if malpractice occurred), in psychology I don't know.
Just talking theoretically; I can't judge OP's situation of course.

I don't know about getting money back unless going through the courts and that could get really messy with lawyers and such. The therapist could be reported to the relevant professional body, that is if the therapist is a member of a professional body for unethical practice. The best outcome from that would be the therapist being struck off and unable to practice in future.
