You could say something simple like, "Hi T, Thanks for checking in. I'd like to wait a few more weeks before going back to therapy. I'll let you know when I'm ready."

That's all she really needs to not think that you're quitting forever. You have the choice to go back whenever you'd like but from what you're saying it sounds like you do think you want to go back or think it would be a good idea someday. Again, do it at your own pace but just be mindful of getting comfortable where you're at and like others have said, why you don't want to go.
You're right. I always over analyze what I would reply to T because I always want it to be perfect. Just a question though, if I tell my T I want to wait a few more weeks what if I just never go back? I mean I'm not really over the issues that I need to face but it feels good not going (if that made sense).
