In short, he is not your T. T can help you in those areas, and can offer perspective about what to tell bf, and when.
Again, a thread on this topic in the Survivors of Abuse forum would allow those who have experience to share their perspectives.

That is a good point. I can't even write out the words in my journal. I feel like what I told him last night is enough for now. I need to process more with t before I can really do anything else.
I did make a post in that forum. Didn't get any replies for a couple of days, but now I've gotten a few. It helps that some have said they felt the same in the beginning.
