Psychologist, PhD Clinical Psychology, Masters in Marriage Family Therapy
There are few clinicians skilled in the treatment of these complex disorders. Dr Roberts has many years of experience working with the traumatic fallout of complex trauma. He has specialist training in dissociative identity disorder and structural dissociation.
Grounding, soothing, and leaning to separate out past trauma from present reality helps decrease dissociation. I also approach this with some of the approaches I’ve already mentioned. People who dissociate are often plagued with past thoughts or memories of a very difficult time. Exploring childhood patterns of family interactions gives one a key to understanding their dissociation as a trauma response. Also essential is the learning of other trauma responses that don’t come with the down sides of dissociating, like memory problems or depersonalization/derealization anxiety.
