The thing is, I know conceptually how I feel. But I don't have words for the feelings! I want to tell her that I am feeling [feeling], but I literally do not know how.
Does anyone else struggle with this? Can I get past this? I feel so dumb and frustrated.

I struggle with this all of the time. Sometimes I give up and just don't say anything. I suppress lots of things and sometimes I don't realize that I do. When I try to explain myself I think to myself that it will sound stupid so I don't say anything. I find myself at a loss for words.
Perhaps you can try to prepare prior to your season and find the words then in order to be able to communicate and be able to express yourself in session.
