girl33 welcome to babble.
I feel badly no one has answered your post but I must say I don't feel qualified to answer it. IMHO I would say she took advantage of the patient/therapist relationship messed with your head and then regretted because of her relationship with your mother. As for how you feel it is natural for a patient to transfer feelings to their therapist but the therapist should keep the boundaries straight. She did not. She crossed those boundaries and then left you hanging.
You of course feel very messed up because you went to her with issues in the first place and all she did is cause more issues. Now, you have a bigger problem on top of those that are probably still unresolved.
Do not feel shame. You as far as I can see did no wrong. She did. She broke the bounds of professional conduct. I am sorry for that.
I think in your best interest you need a new therapist and to move on. I would be tempted to tell your mom what she did but that is up to you. It might be best just to move on to a new therapist to help clean up this situation.
You need help in moving on I think.
Again, welcome and I am so sorry for how you have been hurt.
