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.

Registered Psychotherapist, HBEd, MA (Hons.), Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
Who does not want to escape reality at times? Dissociative disorders are mental disorders that involve experiencing a disconnection and lack of continuity between thoughts, memories, surroundings, actions and identity. People with dissociative disorders escape reality in unhealthy and involuntary ways as a means to deal with intrusive and often traumatic thoughts and memories.

Clayre Sessoms Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, RCT, RCC, CCC, ATR-P
At Clayre Sessoms Psychotherapy, we specialize in providing compassionate support for individuals facing Dissociative Disorders. We approach dissociation from a non-pathologizing perspective, recognizing it as a natural response to overwhelming experiences, particularly in the context of trauma. As a senior facilitator of Trauma-Informed Stabilization Treatment, Clayre leads our team in offering trauma-informed care that focuses on stabilization and healing.
Our therapeutic approach is rooted in creating a safe and validating space where clients can explore their dissociative experiences without judgment. We understand that dissociation can serve as a survival mechanism in response to trauma, and our goal is to help individuals navigate through these experiences with compassion and understanding.
Through trauma-informed techniques and somatic interventions, we guide clients in building a sense of safety, grounding, and connection to their bodies. By fostering a deep understanding of how trauma impacts the mind and body, we support individuals in developing coping strategies, enhancing emotional regulation, and promoting integration of fragmented parts of self.
Our commitment to non-pathologizing care means that we view dissociation as a natural response to adversity, rather than a pathology. We work with clients to help them reclaim agency, cultivate self-compassion, and foster a more cohesive sense of self. By empowering individuals to explore their experiences in a supportive and trauma-informed environment, we aim to facilitate healing, resilience, and a renewed sense of wholeness.
We believe in providing trauma-informed support for individuals with Dissociative Disorders, honoring their experiences, and guiding them on a transformative journey towards self-discovery, healing, and empowerment.
