I remember you too. Are you still in Atlanta?
I don't know about talking to the other therapist. I certainly don't think she would/could talk to you about your individual therapy and my guess is that the message you would get is that you need to discuss with your own therapist what you feel about the way she treats you in the group. Also, as a rule, professionals are loathe to step on the toes of their colleagues.
I do think you owe it to yourself to be honest with your therapist about how you feel she's been treating you and about your concerns about the dynamics of your relationship. She may have some concerns as well. If she's at all good, she should be able to help you reach a decision about whether the 2 of you can get past this or whether it's just not going to work. As bitter a pill as this is to swallow, the therapeutic relationship does teach us things that are helpful to other relationships, so it's best to at least figure out what's really going on between the 2 of you.
I'm sorry things aren't going as well as you'd like.
