Hi Jennifer,
I think if you feel you are at that point, than you must be feeling safe with your T to tell him. This is a good sign. It isn't ever easy though, but your T will be able to handle anything you tell them.
I have been in therapy for 3 years also, and I am just beginning to be able to feel the emotion with what happened to me. But naturally I try like heck to avoid it though. Part of my abuse was I wasn't able to cry even, so getting past it where you feel safe to tell your T is huge. Don't worry about the emotion at this point, your T will understand, it is very common for abuse survivors to have suppressed the emotion as a way of protection.
You are on the right path, it will be hard, but it will help process the healing you need. Be gentle with yourself, okay.
