It is important that you tell this therapist that she "terrifies" you and makes you feel "unsafe". A PTSD therapist "must" help the patient feel safe, that is one of the "important" responsiblities a therapist who specializes in treating a patient with PTSD needs to maintain. If the patient doesn't feel "safe" with the therapist the therapy will not be helpful. You should not feel intimidated and think you have no say because someone else is "controlling the purse strings" either.
