It seems to me that your T is much more concerned with you feeling safe being authentic, and not about your fear of "devouring" others. I think you are right, we all develop our own "protections". In therapy he is very adequately protected and has all the resources he needs, and you are free to be yourself. He obviously cares and is concerned that you feel good about being yourself with him or anyone, and he wants to help you develop those skills.
