This is why I wont see a therapist, it's happened to me twice now. People beleive what they want to.
But you know it happened, you know it's not just nightmares and made up stuff. I'm sure you have some nightmares in your mind as well, but you can tell they're differant can't you? They feel differant.
What happened to you is real, wether they beleive you or not. If they don't beleive you, fine, but don't let them destroy all the work you've put in to move on from this. You've worked too hard for an unprofessional therapist, and your mother (who, like most mothers whos husbands have abused, will deny it completely) to destroy it. Don't let them ruin it for you, you've done so well.
See how this phone conversation goes. If it goes badly, simply don't see him again. There are other therapists, or, there are friends who do beleive you. You've probably learnt a lot from this therapist, and just because he turns out to be a jerk now dosen't mean the help he gave you before wasn't valad. Try and biuld on that.
