Anna Skomorovskaia (Sky)
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, RSW, Psychotherapist
As a psychotherapist, I chose to work with dissociative disorders because I understand the impact that trauma can have on an individual's mental health. Dissociation is a natural response to trauma, where individuals may experience a disconnection from their thoughts, emotions, or sense of self. Dissociative disorders are complex and can be challenging to treat, but I believe that therapy can help individuals better understand and manage their symptoms. Through therapy, I work collaboratively with my clients to develop coping strategies and build resilience. I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where my clients feel heard and understood, and I am committed to helping them on their path towards healing and recovery.

Tracey Nguyen
Counsellor/Therapist, RN, MN
Dissociation disorders come from dissociating from ourselves as a coping mechanism to deal with a painful childhood or reality. People with dissociation are often creative and sensitive, and floating above it all was a way to diffuse and deal with unsafe emotional, physical and sexual violations experienced often in earlier life. To heal from dissociation, we work to re-integrate reality and work on healing some core issues where your boundaries and feeling safe were violated repeatedly. In a safe and shared presence, we work on slowly coming back into your body, feeling the sensations and emotions that arise, and address the deeper relationship going on within. Once we work on healing what keeps you running from yourself, dissociation naturally heals itself once you feel safe enough to stay in your body.

Hiba Khatkhat @ Under The Oaks Self Care Center
Registered Psychotherapist, MA CMHC, RP
Dissociation is the mind's great ability to protect you and help you get through extreme overwhelm and hardship. We all have the ability to do it. It's on a continuum. When it's not seen as a disorder, it shows up as numbing or being on auto-pilot (like when you forget to take your exit driving and you say "my mind was somewhere else"). When it's a disorder, it can have tremendous impacts on many areas in your life. Focusing on integration and stabilization becomes key. We combine trauma informed care with the structural dissociation theory of personality, along with practices informed by internal family systems to deliver a tailored approach, in addition to trauma therapy that targets the root causes.
