"holding yourself accountable" can mean many things. including telling yr T, OK I put it out on the table, but I'm not ready to discuss it yet.
You did good just bringing it up - take some credit for that, I am sure your T will be patient with you. Please don't
force yourself into exploring difficult disclosure too soon, just out of some idea of duty - this can harm you.
Your T now knows that the issue is there, and will know how to move the conversation around to it .... that is, on SOME DAY when you are more ready. hang in there
