I just can't believe her.....so I'm afraid to talk about it. And talking about it wont' change anything. Although, for the first time in 7 months, she told me how sorry she was during my session yesterday, and said she learned a "hard lesson" and will not be doing it again. I should be able to move on now, because that's all I really wanted. For her to admit that she hurt me, and to try to save other people from having the same thing happen to them. I'm afraid the hurt will never go away completely.

Lizzy-
I'm glad you are able to even look at "moving on" with this T.
It seems to me, though, that you are the one who "learned a hard lesson." If she learned any lesson at all....it was at your expense...which still makes me mad, tbh.
I hope it helps you to know....your situation helped me in my therapy. I brought your situation up in my therapy and expressed my fears about the same thing happening to me....that T's shouldn't introduce comfort then withdraw it without explanation ....no discussion...that if that's the plan, let me know right now....anyway, it cleared the air early in our relationship. You helped me.
