I'm glad she called back, but sorry it didn't go better.
My therapist has always been bad on the phone. I always thought it was that he didn't want to encourage nonbillable contact. But even after he realized that not only would I pay him, but I'd actually insist on it, he's still rotten.
Some therapists depend heavily on their presence I think. Maybe she's one of them.
I'm sorry you don't have more support when things are so stirred up. I try to have my therapist wind down emotional sessions about ten minutes before we leave. Having him help me calm down helps a lot. Do you think your new/old therapist could help you do that? Or moderate the amount of arousal in a session?
