I get what you're feeling. My situation was recurring for 12 years and I just faced it this April and told someone and also the police. I am able to talk about it. Something I have learned, it's much easier to talk once you do it one time, with yourself. I couldn't tell anyone until I reflected on what it had done to me and talked myself up, as if I was a friend talking to me. You do not have to talk about it with your T, but it is very helpful. They are there for you to talk about what you want to talk about but they can't help you unless you allow them to. They are trained and "know what to say." I have a very hard time with my T, I don't trust her fully, but I talk when I see her, I actually do about 90% of the talking. I find it helps me to just talk about it and have someone listen. I hope that this helps.
