People in the community are blocking disclosure.

This is for clinicians: Disclosure without experiencer safeguards is not disclosure. For experiencer groups, one-on-one support, and counselors, please keep this best practice in mind: No one should tell an experiencer what happened inside their own mind. In the peer to peer support groups we hold no one tells anyone else what their experience is. Take a clinically forensic approach. Separate the experience from the interpretation. Ask: Where's the evidence? What do we actually know? An experiencer can be taken seriously without someone else defining the cause of their experience for them. Why aren't experiencers demanding protections of their rights? Disclosure isn't only about transparency. It's about safeguarding the humans these events are happening to. Please choose to protect experiencers before protecting theories, programs, personalities, or narratives about what their experiences mean. The person must come before the phenomenon.
