Please could you give me some information..?

Hi, I live in Buenos Aires, Argentina. I am trying to find someone trained in EMDR...
i was sexually abused by my father for a long long time, since i was 3/4 till he died-
i feel a bit scared to do EMDR...i've read info about it and i am willing to try...but i would like to know a bit about the kind of relationship that the T develops with the client..I haven't been able to talk about the abuse and it affects me in my daily life and night, i hurt myself and live on the edge..and i am scared that if i talk about it, or face it i will start crying and wont be able to stop ... i know it may seem like a silly question but i would like to know if the T somehow supports the client to get through this emergency state...if the client is feeling too much distress and fear the t can give a hug?...if the session is too tough and client asks for a hug to be able to get grounded..?
I would appreciate any response about what actually happens during EMDR sessions, the relationship b/ T/client.....
here in Argentina i cannot find too much info, i dont know where to look for info..i am just really scared of feeling "alone" during the session...of feeling at the mercy of all the bad things...

Thank you for your help and time,
teddy bear.
