She told me that I'm not contaminating her by talking about it, that I'm a lovely person. I asked her point blank, if it bothers her for me to talk about it, and she told me that she does not feel bothered by my talking about SI. She said she feels honored that I would talk with her about it, considering how difficult it is for me. She repeated that several times for me, and I think I'm starting to believe her. She even offered to let me record her saying it if I needed to.
