Oh, she makes me so mad. You don't deserve to be treated this way, and
certainly not because this twat thinks she is too precious to deal with a few emails. If she thinks that qualifies as harassment, what have
I been doing to my uni therapist this past year? I must be a real menace! I should probably be locked up.
It irritates me to no end when people use words they obviously don't know the meaning of.
Honestly, it is up to each individual therapist to communicate to their clients what their boundaries are; the clients are not clairvoyant. But this one is so incompetent she hasn't even managed to do something as basic as that! And then she puts the blame on
you for failing to comply with rules you knew nothing about. Run, don't walk, away from this one.

I will be left with nothing.

It will definitely not have been for nothing. You will come away from it with valuable life experiences that you can apply to other situations in the future, and you will have learned things about yourself. In this case, you will hopefully have learned where to draw the line when someone is treating you like crap. And that is one of the hardest lessons to learn in life.
Unfortunately, we don't always get closure. Sometimes we just have to do damage limitation, which for you involves walking out of her office and never going back. She may be the devil you know, but there doesn't seem to be any comfort in that. She's not safe, she's harmful. She's abusive. Leave her before she gets the chance to cause you even more damage.

This. She might as well have said that. What a ridiculous woman.
