Her big secret is having ice powers. Of course it's no longer a secret at this point of the move, so why does she call it a secret? It's because she doesn't mean her powers, but the thing lying underneath is. Her powers are actually a symbol for a depression she is having.

The closed door is a symbol for not letting anyone help you. This is a common reaction to a depression, people want to hide their own feelings. The storm raging on, is the result of the depression to the people in the environment of the depressed one. Thanks to the frozen fjord, boats can't get in or out Arendelle, so the economy doesn't work. This symbolizes Elsa no longer being able to functionate in life ...

Everyone witnessing her powers is a symbol for having a weak moment in public. This is the one thing she tried to avoid (conceal, don't feal), but actually no-one knows she's depressed. That's why people call her a monster. Only Anna knows about her problem, so she defends her: "She's not a monster."

In the reprise of For The First Time In Forever, Anna sais: "For the first time in forever, I finally understand". She understands that Elsa has ice powers (litterally) and that she has more problems (depression) than Anna had thought. That's why they can fix it hand in hand.
