I think it's always okay to say it's about the T but the T will want it to be about people who are in your life outside of therapy too.
There are no "rules in EMDR". My T used to tell me over and over that there is no right or wrong way to do it.

Thank you (((rainbow)))! I tried calling a friend before calling T but couldn't get a hold of them to talk. Someone might say: "What about your husband?". Not sure why I didn't call him. I did email him

Those waters are a little muddy and he is anxious right now about things. I don't want to add to the 'pile'. T's 'are perfect' in some ways. And I totally get that we need people IRL to support us.
