Slowly, wow! NG is processing some difficult stuff. And it's great that you already know that he has to do it and you'll suffer it until he's done. You are WAY ahead of the game. Pity the poor people who never make it to this BB!
I'd just say remember to let him process it the way he needs to, and get some scripts about you for handling the difficult things that will come up. It's heavy stuff, and it will bring up a lot of crap for you, as well, of course.
