I think you could talk to you therapist about how there is something that you don't feel comfortable sharing. Talking about not talking about something can be very helpful. I found it helpful to me in deciding whether I wanted to share something, whether it likely would be helpful to share it, and to alert my T that his response would be important to me, so he had to be "on his toes" so to speak. This conversation could also help you to know how your T values honesty and openness.

I would try talking about it from this angle and see what happens. You can still choose to keep it to yourself. Your T has to respect that, in my opinion.

Good luck,
gg
