Everyone has sort of aleady said this, but I just wanted to agree..
I am a psych grad student who has done a lot of work in mental health settings, where we are trained in HIPAA, ethics, etc.. and what everyone has said is correct. Your new T is absolutely WRONG.. she does not have a right to anything just by virtue of being your therapist. Can you imagine if that were the case? Shed be able to call your family, spouse, children, etc and get any information she wanted.. no way.
If I were you, I'd drop this T immediately. She is obviously either manipulative or clueless when it comes to ethics guidelines. If it were me, I'd have a hard time ever trusting her in the future.
I'm sorry you have to deal with this!
