I guess I will talk about this with T on Friday, but has anyone else experienced this kind of mental block? How did you get past it?

Can you just bring up whatever is happening in the moment in T? Even if it's "I know there are so many things I need to talk about, but when I sit here, my mind goes blank". Maybe if you can just let yourself relax and be however you are, you will find your way to the things you need to talk about.
It sounds like you were really honest with T and had a really good session. Good for you
