You are not intended to be profesionnal there, but healed
Your feelings are most important in a therapy and it is crucial to help you that you share them. I think you will benefit from being honest and open with your psychatrist. If it makes things better; great and if not, you can continue working on finding a new one. Is it possible for you to get the opinion of another psychiatrist or health professionnal on the matter? (as your doctor, maybe). You say you have bordeline troubles, so maybe you should double check your assumptions about whether or not you would benefit from changing therapist, and whether or not your current psychiatrist is uncomfortable because of what happened (maybe she is uncomfortable for another reason)
From what I read you seem afraid of your current therapist and/or her reaction. Keep in mind these people are there to help you and also that you have the freedom to find a new one if it just doensn't work out with this one.
