I don't think you should stop. But you may be moving too fast. You may need to give it more time to develop a relationship with this T and trust her. If it's her personality that you feel is preventing you from showing your feelings then perhaps you could look into seeing a different T.
Just my thoughts. You definitally can do this :-) keep trying.

Thanks for this! She's honestly amazing though, and she has SO much patience with me which helps a lot. It's me though. I trust no one, and if I do it'll take YEARS before I can fully trust them. I've been seeing T for a year now and just recently feeling more comfortable talking but still have a lot I dont include or emotions I dont show. That's why I want to send an email but on the other hand I dont want to seem dependant.
