Then this is probably just a very ingrained habit that occurs automatically? When you get to therapy and you start reacting this way you could mention the above to the therapist and connect this past stuff with what you are currently doing. This was how I broke the connection between the past and present. Make the subconscious reactions conscious and talk through what is going on and you can break the automatic connection.
