It is possible to change! Unfortunately life is full of stress and wounding experiences. Sometimes these experiences are extreme one time life changing events or losses but often they're chronic insidious challenging experiences of everyday life. Abuse, loss, toxic relationships, life transitions to name a few can result in hopelessness, addiction, despair and unexplained fear and anxiety. It can impair your relationships, your work, overall sense of well being and beliefs. The good news is that there is a lot of new information about how the brain is affected by these experiences and ways to change it.

Finding the right therapist is not always an easy task. My goal is to create a safe space by being an unbiased listener. We work together to understand your needs; building a trusting relationship. I work with adults experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, or adjustment-related concerns. Our work will vary based on the individual; there is no one size fits all. I utilize a holistic approach as mind, body, and spirit are the foundation of who we are. I believe what we eat and how we move has an impact on our thoughts and behaviors; taking care of our bodies can make a difference on how the mind works.

I love my work, primarily because of the admiration and respect I have for my clients. It takes a lot of courage to begin therapy and attempt to look at oneself more honestly. I have beautiful, serene offices that are conducive to feeling comfortable. I provide a very positive and caring approach in my work with clients. I believe that focusing on one's strengths is important since most of us struggle with negative feelings about ourselves.

My specialty is trauma. I love to journey with people to help them learn how to live free and full lives. Life is filled with many anxieties, trials, traumas, and obstacles which can create patterns that hinder us from thriving. When we experience trauma, our brain and body create adaptive or maladaptive patterns to cope with trauma. My goal is to partner with my clients to identify the problems, create effective goals, and increase healthy cognitive, emotional, and behavioral skills in order to decrease symptoms and develop healthy coping tools. I provide Christian counseling to those seeking support from a faith based perspective.

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.
