> だからここでもただ先生と書くだけで本名は打ち明けない。

From my own comprehension, it literally means ...

> That's why, even here, I only write sensei. His real name is not
> revealed/confided.

Have I interpreted it correctly?

I think you're on the right track.

To break it down to smaller chunks...

だから -- So,  
ここでも -- here too; here (in this book) as well  
ただ～だけ -- only; just  
先生と書く -- I write (his name as) sensei; I refer to him as sensei  
で -- the continuative form of the copula だ  
本名は打ち明けない -- I won't reveal his real name

Put together, it would literally be like...

"So, here (in this book) as well, I will just write his name as sensei / refer
to him as sensei, and won't reveal his real name."
