I think you'll do yourself a disservice if you don't share what you've written with her. It's a common saying that our issues follow us and there's no reason to believe you wouldn't have the same issues with a new therapist. It doesn't sound like she's done anything unprofessional and if you're feeling emotionally challenged and attached, that's actually a good sign to me. Therapy does bring out pain, that's part of the process, and getting used to crying is important. But she should be able to help you with all of that, and if you don't give your therapists feedback, how will they be able to work with you?

Because you could switch, but none will be perfect- all will need feedback, it's a give and take process.

I do hear that you're feeling overwhelmed. Maybe you could give her the chance to hear that and help you with it. Or, if you were honest with her and she couldn't help, then you'd know with more confidence to look for someone else, knowing you'd tried to communicate your needs.
