Ouch. This really makes me wonder if she's overwhelmed with her personal situation and not able to adequately respond right now. OTOH, you've mentioned some kind of bizarre things she's said in the past, when she wasn't necessarily bogged down with the recent adjustments in her life.
I do think that it's really difficult to evaluate someone else's therapy, and so I try not to haphazardly tell others what they should or shouldn't do in a therapy relationship. I also think that it's really difficult to evaluate our own therapy relationships sometimes. I know I'm not so objective about my relationship with my therapist (obviously). I don't really know where I'm going with all of this - maybe just thinking that consultation (for both of you) with a third party might be helpful.
Most importantly, I'm really sorry this has been your experience. It sounds like it's been wrenching, to say the least.
