I'm like Daisy in that I wouldn't let my parents anywhere near my therapy (they don't even know I go), but if you think that your therapist seeing them will help you, then go for it (if you can get them there!) Maybe you could tell them that there is something in it for them, like 50 mins of attention for your mum...
I don't think my T knows how my parents really are either, its quite a hard thing to convey with just a few words and anecdotes. My mum is so formidable her friends call her 'the general', and my friends never phoned me when I was a child because they were so scared my mum would answer. She's not nasty, just scary!
Good luck honey
