Maybe you could bring it up as you did here: start of by saying you are uncomfortable to bring this up (I always find it to be empowering to be honest that I'm coming from a vulnerable place), and just gently let her know that you've been feeling like you're recognizing a similar dynamic and you'd like to talk about the similarities and what they are bringing up for you.
Wishing you luck and healing. <3
