Well, if you don't feel you have control of how much you reveal, how fast, and when, etc. or that the therapist will help you from getting overwhelmed, it makes sense that you keep leaving therapy. If therapy is going to work, you need to at least let your therapist know that you are so uncomfortable you have been thinking of quitting therapy, because of the trust issue.
Hopefully, your therapist and you can discuss how to help you feel safer, and not rush you to reveal more than you feel safe doing.
How about writing a letter about this to the therapist? Sometimes it is easier in writing.
