The more you get triggered and work through it the less that specific trigger will set you off. It sounds like that's what your doc is talking about. He sounds totally okay with taking through this stuff with you.

Yeah I know he would be, he's really good at explaining concepts to me and talking to me almost on an equal level instead of feeling like he's the Doctor so he needs to speak down to me, like other Pdocs I've seen. Like I said we have already started doing work on body awareness to stop the out of body, too large to fit in the space around me feelings I get from the residual effects of my eating disorder still flaring up every now and then, and so far that's been working really well for me. So I'm sure he'll be able to help me with this as well, I just feel bad for even having these feelings because I so don't mean them to be an insult to him. I just have to keep reminding myself when it does happen that he's the one who has my trust, and this is just my body responding to old memories.
And thank you
