I had three mediators to help me in my situation with my unethical therapist and only one of them was helpful.

So, while you can keep mediation in mind, make sure that the mediating therapist is comfortable with the task and wouldn't add to your trauma.

I'd suggest though to clarify for yourself what you want. If you want to come to a mutual understanding and reconciliation with your therapist then don't contemplate any punitive actions against her until you realize that reconciliation is not possible. The agenda of reconciliation and the agenda of punishment are mutually exclusive and no action will be successful if you try to execute both.

I have an impression that there is a internal rift within you about what you actually want, and whenever such conflict is present it's better not to take any action until you sort it all out and get clear with yourself about what you want. Honesty is paramount when you try to answer this question for yourself.
Yes, it's like that. Thank you.
