I did that when I went to talk to my priest. I never cry in front of people and yet I couldn't stop it. (I do cry in therapy all the time.) I think it is perhaps the right moment, with an open person, at the end of a long day, when you might be a little less defensive. I think it is great that he was accepting and thanked you for sharing with him. It does sound like you are still grieving.
And also, you've just had this whole wound reopened very recently, so how could it not be sensitive? Think about the set up for your psyche...one-on-one time with a man counselor...it makes total sense to me that stuff came pouring out.
You might find that going back is helpful. On the other hand, you'll now have expectations, nerves and prethought.
Still, I'm glad you had the chance to release some of your grief.
