If it still seems too, too hard to say, maybe bring this post (you summarized the situation nicely!), warn him it says negative things about a T. from a long time ago, and let him read it? Just if you want to really get it out there quickly...?
Like others said, not being able to tolerate negativity about previous T's IS the T's problem! I think it's rare and you had rotten luck with that last one. I've told two T's really blunt, possibly rude things about prior therapy, because I felt they were true and accurate, and these things hurt me! So they needed to know.
In fact, last week, I told my T. that another T. I saw in 2003 for a while, although mostly good, was "monumentally stupid and insensitive," in the way she treated a certain issue. Guess what? He agreed! Went on a little rant of his own about how her reaction and remarks were "so, so HER stuff, not yours!"
You can do this, fw, you'll find the right way. Be patient with yourself and T., okay?
