Unpacking disclosure: interrupting unquestioned practices.

Disclosure, the social practice of sharing the details, the "truths" of one's life, is embedded in our social world, and in the assumptions that drive the provision of mental health and psychotherapeutic intervention. In this paper the author interrogates the ways in which categories of sexuality and disclosure itself is historically derived and asks: How would care be different if we consider the constructed categories of sexual orientation as an exemplar of an unstable truth? In addition, the author suggests approaches to practice that unseat the valorization of disclosure.
