Dissociative Disorders
Nancy Hayes-Gary, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, MD , Psy.D.
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.

When people experience trauma, the mind has a wonderful way of protecting us from the pain that sometimes comes at the service of disconnecting from ourselves.

Dissociative Disorders
Dr. Patricia Webbink
Psychologist, MA and PhD in Clinical Psychology
For many years I have worked with clients who have dissociative disorders as individuals, in couples and in families and in groups. Dissociation is a defense to deal with trauma, so that a person is distanced from what is happening., Popular books such as "Three faces of Eve" and "I Never Promised you a Rose Garden" outline what this"split personality" can look like. Itis called DID or dissociative Identity Disorder. Many are treated with hypnosis so that the different personalities can be integrated/ Some of these clients are on medication and being treated by psychiatrists as well.
Also, I have worked with other therapists' clients with Dissociative Identity Disorders when the therapists were on vacation. Clients with this diagnosis often take a large proportion of a clinician's time, and the responsible therapist cannot leave without having adequate cover. I offer free zoom seminars, which promote a positive view of life and help with issues of integrating different parts of a person's self as well as their relationships.
