There's a very big difference between sharing the story of the trauma and actually working through the feelings. Perhaps you can talk to T about maybe supplementing your work with another T to help you with this specific issue.

He's said something similar..about different layers of healing and the reason we get "stuck" is because there is still something that needs to be addressed. I think I understand what is holding me back (it's in a thread in survivors of abuse), but talking about all the underneath stuff is the hardest I think. Thank you for understanding! The feelings and the story are
so different!
Insurance issues only allow one T. He suggested I try a support group, I went one time and fled in tears and have never been able to go back. That's why I joined PC...a virtual support group.
