The first time I cried, I felt so exposed, but after a while you kinda get used to it. I think they want us to cry as it shows the deep hurt & emotion in us. My t knows exactly what buttons to press to get me to cry & I think sometimes he does it on purpose! He picks his times though. My t just gives me space & will say some grounding stuff & that helps. He doesn't try to touch me. (I don't like touch, at all). A lot of us were brought up to not show any emotion, so when you do, although initially we feel like it's wrong, it does become more natural & is ok. It doesn't stop me from trying to hold back the tears initially. Probably due to past experience! Go with it, it's ok.
