I [31 M] am struggling to come to terms not only with my break up with my ex girlfriend [28 F] of a year but also with the trauma she experienced and passed along to me

I’m already going to a therapist: funnily enough, she’s the one who suggested I go. She went to therapy while we were dating and was always very interested in psychology and different aspects of it. I suspected a few times she would try to psychoanalyse me. The first time I called her out on it she backed off, and after that it turned into gaslighting

Well, she would be wise to continue going for much needed therapy for herself.

In any case, the therapist's role is to assist you in recovering from the relationship and avoiding a similar dynamic in the future.
