That's really cool. My therapist and I talk about how she wishes I had that freedom in therapy--and sometimes we get there--but we are still working on it. It sounds like you've got the right one for you.
It's completely normal to be angry at your old therapist. Who wouldn't be? He really, really messed up your therapy, and I'm sure his training taught him to know better.
I'd be lying in bed every night grinding my teeth over it. And taking kickboxing classes EVERY day!
It's great that you have your current therapist to process this. I hope that over time you can feel less and less "damaged," because feeling damaged means you might feel not as good or healthy as others, and it's hard to carry that conviction around with you. After all, what happened wasn't your fault and does not have to mean anything permanent about you.
