You should supply the therapist with a copy of your Final Decree of Divorce showing that you have the right to receive medical information and to make medical decisions. You should send your request for the records in writing with a copy of the Final Decree via certified mail return receipt requested. You should also request to know the reason that she refuses to release the records.
The next step would be to contact the licensing board and see if they can assist you in obtaining the records.
