Dissociative Disorders
Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Psychoanalyst
As a psychoanalyst, I delve into the unconscious mind to understand and treat dissociative disorders. Dissociation, where a person experiences a disconnect from their thoughts, emotions, or memories, can often stem from past traumas. Through our work together, we'll gently explore these unconscious memories and hidden emotional conflicts that contribute to dissociation. By bringing unconscious experiences to light, we can facilitate communication and integration between fragmented parts of the self, ultimately promoting healing and a stronger sense of wholeness.

Jessica Thompson
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
When we dissociate from our bodies or the environment, our system is often attempting to protect and regulate itself from overwhelm. So we need to explore what is overwhelming the body and nervous system, and how to best respond. I also recommend a deep distress tolerance practice here--learning to accept and be with ourselves no matter how we are showing up.

Dissociative Disorders
Dorothy Geiger, LMFT & Associates
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS; LMFT
Dissociation can show up in many forms - from mild "highway hypnosis" or "spacing out" all the way to the creation of separate identities, and everywhere in between. Dissociation can be a very effective form of self-protection....right up until it isn't. I can help you with the use of CRM feel safe enough in mind and body to heal the wounds that led you to dissociation.

TREATMENT AND TOOLS FOR TRAUMA
Licensed Psychoanalyst, PH.D., IN PSYCHOANALYSIS AND NEUROSCIENCE, CERTIFIED PSYCHOANALYST, PSY.A, & LICENSED PSYCHOANALYST
Dissociative Disorders occur when the mind is overwhelmed and needs to "check out." This is an automatic process, especially when the person has nowhere to turn for relief from their suffering. Then the mind does its job to protect the person by disconnecting and "going" elsewhere. Dissociative Disorders are almost always the result of trauma, some type of traumatizing experience. In my experience, these kinds of disorders require long-term treatment 2-3 times per week. Just being present in the room with the patient is where I start. Creating a very safe environment that is conducive to talking about your experiences. As the patient begins to experience a safer space I will add the supplements, diet and exercise, and the creation of special "flow experiences" for the patient.
