Sounds from what you wrote that sort of therapy you are in isn't really theraputic. It works best when the therapist remains quite and allows the client to go at their own pace. Forcing someone to talk about the "boogey man" only means they "pleasing" the therapist at that time and not reaching the unconsious material that takes a lot of time and patience and trust. Therapy begins by uncovering the less repressed material and sometimes many yrs later the deeper repressed stuff becomes consious.

Memories do not work by command.
