Yep, Angel goes to see her in prison at the beginning of season two, but that's the last time we see her until Wesley breaks her out. I don't really know what the conversation between the two of them was exactly. The fact that she finally turned herself in is certainly a strong suggestion that she's healing herself, but the details are left to fic writers.
I actually think that she could have a serious relationship with Wood, inasmuch as an intimate relationship with someone can help you to restore yourself. I see Buffy as actually less prepared for a relationship than Faith at this point, but that's highly debatable.
I think the whole vampface thing is like the "what's the role of the soul in the Buffyverse" question -- fraught with continuity issues based on both inexperience in the early seasons and the fact that nobody ever sat down and really worked it out. It seems like they just let dramatic impact rule most of the time.
