Hey slugdoo,
> Would it help do you think to make an appointment with him and tell him in person what this all has done to you and how devastated you are. I did that with my old therapist, and I think it helped. My old therapist listened and did not get defensive and actually acknowledged some things. By the way, I still miss him too after 3 months.
OzLand's suggestion sounds like a really good one. Well, it's the sort of thing that appeals a lot to me because of my own issues about wanting to fix relationships. But maybe it would work for you because you might feel the need to have him hear how hurt and angry you are, even though you have a new therapist now.
And then... there's the question of other unexpressed feelings you have about him, and what part they play in all this. Is it something you're talking about with your new therapist? (As always, you don't have to answer my questions!)
Love,
TamarP.S. I'm still getting used to your posting name. Maybe it will help me with my phobia!
