I tend to suppress strong feelings in therapy too (and in group). I cry in sessions when I'm overwhelmed but usually I try not to show much feeling. I don't know exactly how to stop suppressing feelings, but I started noticing how I do it. Basically I tense up parts of my body and it stops emotions from flowing. So... the key would be to relax my body when emotions come up. You might start with noticing where in your body your feelings are manifesting (usually for me they're around my chest or throat area), then try to let them flow physically.
