Hi musing, this does not surprise me at all, and I am so sorry. I remember when she was doing things like talking to her daughter and/or daughter's therapist on the phone during your session, and texting you while on the phone with another client (and actually told you this). She has always seemed less than present for you, except when overdoing it that first year.

You were such a different person when you started therapy. Almost happy and bubbly. You had gone because of marriage issues, if I recall, and then your therapist started reeling you in and things spiraled. This is not how therapy is supposed to work, but I understand how attachments can prevent people from leaving an unhealthy relationship.
