Eleven weeks isn't that long to get to know and understand you. She might feel cautious when she sees an extreme reaction.
What I've found works with my therapist is to be totally honest, in a nonjudgmental and inquiring way, with him about his reaction and how it is affecting me. Giving him feedback about how I'm experiencing him helps me feel safe to be myself.
