How long have you been seeing this therapist? Being 100% open can be a long process. Only today I told my T some things I have hidden from him for two and a half years...
I only mentioned it in terms of DBT because OP did - I was trying to remind him that nonjudgmental is at the core of DBT mindfulness and to, hopefully, encourage/comfort him with regards to talking to his T.
