Yeah, good questions. I guess that's the big trick to all of this. I don't think we can know if they're good, except by experiencing enough therapy with them to get a feel for it. How do you feel about it?
I agree that her dumping you for not going on meds seems like a big mistake. I really wonder what was behind that (her issues? some theory about effective therapy techniques?). I've spent a lot of time refusing meds with therapists who were advocating giving them a try. And it was always entirely my choice in the end, although they would bring up issues that I needed to think through about it.
I would think that if you did go back to working with her, you'd have to hash that one out first thing. Or else, if I were in your place, I'd always be wondering about what the next deal breaker would be that would make her dump me again.
good luck
