I’m curious about if you’re someone that struggles with SH and has a therapist do they know?

Im currently 20 and have been seeing my college counselor for just under 2 months or so, I feel very comfortable round him and always feel extremely listened to, I’ve been actively SH’ing since i was around 12/13 on and off and I’ve only ever told one person, a best friend about it. Im trying to tell my therapist about it because i feel im getting to a stage where i need the help with urges escalating. Im pretty sure he knows i do it bc he knows there’s something I can’t share and so we’ve been talking round it just without saying the actual word so its not even his reaction im worried about, im planning to say it in my next session on Thursday (its Sunday now) i just need some advice really, im so scared between now and Thursday I gonna completely talk myself out of it. I feel like an attention seeker for even wanting to tell him and that I can’t be that bad if im willing to share it. Im also in some ways scared of getting better

Can anyone help?
