To be honest, your most recent post about having feelings about hurting her made me concerned. I also think your concerns about wanting information about her but knowing her psychoanalytical bent could continue to be problematic.
I don't want to encourage you to leave her if you feel that you are making progress. But not every therapist is for every patient. I had to leave the first therapist I went to because he was so focused on getting me into family therapy when I knew my parents and siblings would never, ever go into therapy. It was not the appropriate solution. The next therapist I saw had a much better handle on the situation and worked with what he could - he did not force a solution that was not reasonable.
