If you're looking for an advanced-trained EMDR Certified Therapist or Consultant (CIT), I would love the opportunity to work with you! I have shifted my practice to only EMDR work: Individual sessions and Intensives Experiences (3 or 4 hours). Intensives include diagnostics, our 8:3 Guidebook, therapy aides, and also include ILF Neurofeedback to decrease emotional dysregulation, dissociation and strengthen the Default Mode Network which plays a major role in our self-concept. Intensives are an excellent option to transform your life without weekly appointments.

I have been working with families and teens in crisis for over 40 years and now though semi-retired I choose to use my skills to reach out through online therapy to support others. I come from a unique perspective that life is one of balance or imbalance. Balance is needed in our physical, emotional and spiritual lives and when out of balance life is just not right, we know it and sense it.

My ideal client is a person who has faced significant challenges, setbacks, or traumatic experiences. They struggle with anxiety, stress, or depressive symptoms due to their past experiences. Additionally, they face implicit biases directed toward them—whether related to their gender, race, or other factors. Their primary goal is to achieve professional success, whether that means advancing in their career, launching a business, or reaching financial milestones. Beyond external success, they value personal growth and seek healing and resilience.

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.
