I'm so proud of the new SR9c owners!
Seriously though, just work on your trigger break to slowly minimize your flinch. You will never be able to get completely rid of it forever (I still flinch at times) but you can do your best to focus on the trigger and imagine just pushing it straight back without the sight moving.
I strongly suggest you do a lot of dry fire practice. If you removed the magazine disconnect safety (and I hope you have) you can dry fire the gun without a magazine in. If you haven't removed it, dry firing with the magazine out can damage the striker. If you haven't removed it and want to, watch this video. It's very easy:

Bad thing is I only shoot once a month. Takes 50 rounds to start getti g a rhythm back. I always have a empty mag around to dry fire. Haven't tackled removing the disconnect yet.
But after today that's 1300 rounds through mine and no jams at all. Even had a guy shooting a pistol for the first time today four mags flawless.

To maximize the benefit of dry firing, try "pencil shooting". (I know this works in 1911's).
-Insert a sharpened pencil into the barrel of the pistol (insert eraser so that lead is pointing forward).
-Hang a sheet of white paper on the wall with a dot the size of a BB drawn in it.
-Face the wall with the barrel of the pistol only an inch or two from the wall
-Aim at the dot. Fire. Cycle. Repeat.
The marks from the pencil popping out of the barrel should be in the same place.
Now all that said, google "Ball and Dummy Drill".
All the advice on this board combined will not be half as useful as ball & dummy. On the range, fire at least 2 mags and THEN do B&D. You'll totally diagnose yourself. This is a time tested and proven training tool that the military has used for a century. I've overseen small arms training for thousands of personnel and I will personally testify that It works.
