Dissociative Disorders

Christopher Schamber

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW

Dissociation is one of the brain's most powerful tools to cope with threatening memories or information. A little dissociation can be healthy, but for some folks, they may begin encountering blank spots in their memory or the feeling that they are acting radically different in various situations. By calming the nervous system and processing underlying trauma, these dissociative symptoms can be alleviated.

Dissociative Disorders

TREATMENT AND TOOLS FOR TRAUMA

Licensed Psychoanalyst, PH.D., IN PSYCHOANALYSIS AND NEUROSCIENCE, CERTIFIED PSYCHOANALYST, PSY.A, & LICENSED PSYCHOANALYST

Dissociative Disorders occur when the mind is overwhelmed and needs to "check out." This is an automatic process, especially when the person has nowhere to turn for relief from their suffering. Then the mind does its job to protect the person by disconnecting and "going" elsewhere. Dissociative Disorders are almost always the result of trauma, some type of traumatizing experience. In my experience, these kinds of disorders require long-term treatment 2-3 times per week. Just being present in the room with the patient is where I start. Creating a very safe environment that is conducive to talking about your experiences. As the patient begins to experience a safer space I will add the supplements, diet and exercise, and the creation of special "flow experiences" for the patient. You are welcome to call my office at 661-478-0667 for an evaluation.
