Forever the over analyist

- I have been trying to work out the whole T thing since I started going.
So is the process:
1. Feeling comfortable with T and building trust
2. Learning to deal with feelings (i.e. strategies to deal with the overwhelming sutff)
AND THEN
3. Looking at the difficult things that are likely to trigger an emotional response?
I ask because sometimes I pluck up courage to go for it and get it all out and T is like "Whoa slow down" - not literally, but T does seem to only let me go so far in the sessions.
