In this essay, I explore areas of overlap and difference between analyst subjectivity and self-disclosure, especially with regard to deliberate rather than inadvertent disclosure. I discuss critiques from within and outside of Relational psychoanalysis that the perspective overemphasizes these concepts, and I introduce “silent-disclosure” to describe one form that the clinician’s mostly internal process of exploring his or her subjectivity can take. A clinical vignette is offered as a way of illustrating this new concept.
