It takes courage and strength to take an inventory of your mental, emotional, spiritual, and relational health. For some, just taking that first step can be the hardest part and it may feel quite overwhelming. For others, it may be difficult to get back into the rhythm of caring for your overall well-being. Wherever you find yourself on this journey towards living a healthier, more meaningful life, I want to meet you where you are at. Life can throw a lot of curveballs and it doesn’t hurt to have someone come alongside you to help you learn the skills to navigate them.

Are you ready to break cycles of trauma, dysfunction, and anxiety this season? My clients are striving for peace as they pursue a life that looks/feels dramatically different than that of just one generation before. They're are often the first in their family to achieve something (e.g., college, purchase a home, generational wealth, avoid substance abuse, etc.,). While their culture is deeply meaningful to them, they can find themselves "caught between worlds", struggling to set healthy boundaries with friends and family who don't quite get it or feeling guilty when they do. If this sounds like you, you're in the right place.

Dissociative Disorders (DID) Therapists
How does therapy for dissociative disorders work?
Dissociation may be triggered by stress or other upsetting circumstances, and therapy can address the traumatic events at the core of an individual’s dissociation. Understanding why a person may dissociate can help the therapist and the individual come up with alternative methods of coping. A person with a dissociative disorder may get stuck on negative thinking, for example, and treatment like Cognitive behavioral therapy is a gold standard for breaking such thinking. And dialectical behavior therapy, for example, can help a person manage their anguish through better emotion regulation.
Which therapies are best for dissociative disorders?
Specific approaches used by professionals include cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavior, psychodynamic, schema therapies, among others. Cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior therapies are two widely used therapies that can help individuals with painful memories and past traumas. These therapies work to integrate an individual's different identities into one person.
Are there specific medications for dissociation?
There are no specific medications prescribed for dissociative disorders. However, psychosis, depression, anxiety, and/or panic often co-occur in dissociative disorders. A psychiatrist may prescribe medications for any accompanying symptom—which may include antipsychotics like aripiprazole, antidepressants like selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or anti-anxiety drugs like benzodiazepines.
How often and how long are therapy sessions?
Like any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual. Patients may see improvement within 15 to 20 sessions, at an average of 50 minutes per session, others may opt for 20 to 30 sessions over, perhaps, a six-month period. There are still other patients, especially those who have co-occurring conditions like depression and anxiety, who may need to continue sessions for up to 12 to 18 months.
