Hey,
All Psychologists have licensing boards. You should actually lodge a formal complaint with her licensing board. Licensing boards really do take confidentiality VERY seriously. They also take patient abandonment VERY seriously. Each state has it's own licensing board. If she is a psychologist start with the APA.
If she's in California, and a social worker or Marriage and Family Therapist, look up the Board of Behavioral Sciences. All states license their mental health professionals differently.
I'm currently studying in California and am currently bound by the BBS rules as a Trainee seeing clients. If I were to do what she did with you I would not be able to get my license.
Hit her where it really hurts. Someone like her really puts our profession down. We in the profession don't like others among us who are unethical. It gives us a bad name.
