I don't think it's just the talking. That's a way to begin a process, but I think purely cognitive work can only effect purely cognitive change. I think the limbic system has to be engaged in the work to experience felt change in that area. Hopefully, the two work together. I never found that talking made the content less horrible; but the activation of new areas of feeling and incorporating those new experiences helped to replace the painful responses.
