(Specifically you, not “you” as in “general”. I won’t take anyone’s answer as advice so don’t worry about speaking your mind :) I’m just curious)

I’m looking up suitable therapists in my area, and because my problem is a bit complicated and after many months I finally found this lady today that qualifies in exactly the kind of therapy I need. As far as I know (I could be wrong) this method is still new (at least in my country) but I’m curious to find out how it turns out for me.

The problem: I opened her LinkedIn and found out she’s almost my age and reminded me of all the girls I used to know at school who used to bully me. One of her teamwork experiences mentioned on her profile also triggered an upsetting memory from school days when I was at my worst point of major depressive disorder. Suddenly I started to see every bully in her face and just started to feel toxic.
But she’s the only one person I could find with the right credentials.
Would you give it a shot in this situation?
