I've read all previous posts and could not be more adamant about my opinion. Please leave.

I've had experience with a very similar situation, almost identical to yours. This woman is far more concerned about her dogma than understanding & thereby helping you. She is not flexible & is not respecting your boundaries. I would not expect contacting a supervisor or the AJA to support you either. There's a chance someone could be sympathetic, but it's more likely that they will be inclined to support the therapist's work and you'll be the resistant, problem client and encouraged to stay & stick it out.

This is most likely not a situation where talking this through will improve the circumstances. You've tried & she is already resistant. I suppose one could view it as a learning experience for both of you, but from my experience you will continue to feel misunderstood & feel worse about yourself.

I'm really sorry this didn't work out for you. Sometimes we have to weed out the bad ones to find the good.

Please continue to post here for additional support if you feel the need.
Thanks for this!
