Clayre Sessoms Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, RCT, RCC, CCC, ATR-P
At Clayre Sessoms Psychotherapy, we specialize in providing compassionate support for individuals facing Dissociative Disorders. We approach dissociation from a non-pathologizing perspective, recognizing it as a natural response to overwhelming experiences, particularly in the context of trauma. As a senior facilitator of Trauma-Informed Stabilization Treatment, Clayre leads our team in offering trauma-informed care that focuses on stabilization and healing.
Our therapeutic approach is rooted in creating a safe and validating space where clients can explore their dissociative experiences without judgment. We understand that dissociation can serve as a survival mechanism in response to trauma, and our goal is to help individuals navigate through these experiences with compassion and understanding.
Through trauma-informed techniques and somatic interventions, we guide clients in building a sense of safety, grounding, and connection to their bodies. By fostering a deep understanding of how trauma impacts the mind and body, we support individuals in developing coping strategies, enhancing emotional regulation, and promoting integration of fragmented parts of self.
Our commitment to non-pathologizing care means that we view dissociation as a natural response to adversity, rather than a pathology. We work with clients to help them reclaim agency, cultivate self-compassion, and foster a more cohesive sense of self. By empowering individuals to explore their experiences in a supportive and trauma-informed environment, we aim to facilitate healing, resilience, and a renewed sense of wholeness.
We believe in providing trauma-informed support for individuals with Dissociative Disorders, honoring their experiences, and guiding them on a transformative journey towards self-discovery, healing, and empowerment.

Dissociative Disorders
EMDR and Trauma Therapy Centre
Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Dissociative disorders manifest a profound interplay between the psyche's protective mechanisms and the echoes of past trauma. A person's sense of self can be shattered, resulting in a loss of identity and reality. This can be caused by events such as severe trauma, caregiver relationship problems, and early attachment experiences. Like a fragmented mosaic, dissociative symptoms manifest as a coping mechanism, shielding individuals from the unbearable weight of their past experiences. Therapy offers a sacred space for exploration and integration, gently guiding individuals through the labyrinth of dissociation to reclaim their sense of wholeness and connection. By fostering secure attachments and processing traumatic memories, individuals can mend the fractures of their psyche, forging a path towards healing and self-discovery.

Freedom & Hope Counselling and Therapeutic Services
Licensed Professional Counsellor, RPC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
It's important to acknowledge that it's common for everyone to experience a disconnect between their thoughts and actions and occasional memory gaps regarding events in their lives. This can also be a coping mechanism during instances of abuse. Adverse childhood experiences, often abbreviated as ACEs, frequently lead to dissociation as children grapple with pain and challenges they are not yet equipped to confront. This topic is particularly close to me due to my training, presentations, and personal life experiences.
