I think you need to set boundaries and hold true to them. Those boundaries need to be shared with your husband, once not over and over. He needs to know you need nc to move forward. As you said you don’t want to say you have to stop seeing… or never talk to… Rather this is what I need.
His actions should show that he is remorseful, that he knows what he did hurt you and to be open/transparent about it. For me an emotional A is worse than a physical A, but both can be incredibly powerful. Time is key to believe, regain trust and move past.
If all of that isn’t hard enough… You still have to make sure you become the person you want to be and not fall backing to old cycles. Keep the focus on you and making yourself solid. Glad you are seeing some positive.
