Hey...
Nice work!!  I'm proud of you for taking the initiative to reach out to your school psychologist for guidance. That is a very brave and mature thing.
I'm glad you had a good experience too and I hope that you can feel comfortable going back to this person for guidance for help should you need it again.
If you wanted to share info on past SI stuff with them, you could, but I'm not sure if they would need to tell your folks. I wouldn't think so because it's in the past. You could always check back in with them and just pose an open ended question to them like "If I told you about something that happened in the past that might not have been good, would you need to tell my parents?" He may be able to tell you yes or no, and you could make your mind up at that time if you wanted to share.
Anyway, you've got something to think on for a bit, but take your time. As far as your anger goes, this will take some practice. (It does for everyone; even adults) One of the first things to accomplish there is learning to notice when it's happening or about to happen and just being able to find what triggers it. Then you can work towards learning what you can do to either prevent the trigger, or intervene after you have been triggered.
Hang in there!!
