If the new T wonders about such and such, you can just say, I dealt with that before with my former T, now I want to work on this other thing with you. I am in the middle of T #2 and he sometimes wonders what happened earlier in my journey, like he says you will be doing some grieving and I say, I did a lot of that already. (I don't need to regrieve for the same stuff with him.) And he accepts that.

Anyway, you wouldn't have to start from scratch with the new T, except for building trust with a new person.
