Dissociation
Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
Do you lose time, feel disconnected from yourself, or struggle to remember parts of your life? Dissociation isn't a sign you're broken—it's how your mind protected you when pain was too overwhelming to face. Whether from childhood abuse, ongoing trauma, or adverse experiences your younger self couldn't process, these gaps and disconnections served a purpose. This work is deeply personal to me through both training and lived experience. Together, we'll help your nervous system feel safe enough to stay present, gently reconnect fragmented parts of yourself, and transform survival mechanisms into conscious choice. You'll learn to be here, fully, without fear.

Dissociation
Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
There are different kinds of dissociative disorders. If you have DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder), then unfortunately I lack training in that area.
However, if you chronically are feeling dissociated, disconnected from your body and/or the present moment, and want to be able to be more in the here and now, I absolutely have training around that. Somatic Experiencing can be very effective at slowly and gently supporting your nervous system to move out of freeze (dissociation) and into a more vital, grounded headspace.

Dissociation
Infinite Horizons Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MCP, CCS, RP
Dissociation can feel like being disconnected from your thoughts, emotions, body, or surroundings, and is often a response to overwhelming or traumatic experiences. You might experience memory gaps, feeling “zoned out,” or a sense of not fully being present in your life. In therapy, we focus on creating safety and stability first, helping you build grounding skills and a stronger sense of control. Over time, we gently explore underlying experiences at a pace that feels manageable, supporting you in feeling more connected, integrated, and present.

Dissociation
Masha Andreeva
Registered Psychotherapist, HonBA, DTATI, RP
Art therapy can provide a grounding and integrative approach to working with dissociative disorders by helping you gently reconnect with yourself in a safe and supportive way. Through creative expression, you can externalize internal experiences, explore fragmented parts of the self, and develop a stronger sense of presence and embodiment. The art-making process allows for nonverbal communication, making it an effective tool for processing emotions and experiences that may feel difficult to articulate. My approach incorporates mindfulness and body-based practices to support reconnection, self-awareness, and a greater sense of stability and integration.

Dissociation
Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you experience dissociation, you may feel disconnected from your body, emotions, or surroundings. There may be moments where you feel numb, spaced out, or as though you are watching yourself from the outside. At times, you may experience memory gaps or feel that different parts of you hold different emotions or reactions. These experiences can feel confusing or frightening.
At Selah Counselling, we approach dissociative disorders with care, patience, and clinical expertise. Dissociation is often a protective response to overwhelming stress or trauma. Your mind learned how to survive. Our work focuses first on safety and stabilization. We help you strengthen grounding skills, build nervous system regulation, and gently increase awareness at a pace that feels manageable. Over time, we support integration, helping the different parts of your experience feel more connected and cohesive. The goal is not to remove protection abruptly, but to provide sufficient safety that you no longer need to disconnect to cope.

Arne Pedersen - Hypnotherapy Victoria

Dissociative disorders can create a sense of disconnection from oneself and reality, but healing is possible. With a gentle and supportive approach, I help individuals explore the underlying trauma that may be contributing to their dissociative experiences. Through Hypnotherapy and mindfulness-based techniques, we work towards mind/body/spirit integration and reclaiming a sense of wholeness and authenticity.

Dissociation
Marjan Emami
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, RTC #3608, MPCC-Provisional #4797, ACTA #3122
Dissociation as a protective, adaptive response to trauma rather than a conscious choice. When emotions are suppressed or invalidated, especially in childhood, the mind may disengage to maintain safety. I guide clients to reconnect with their bodies, explore their emotions, and be curious and compassionate to reintegrate the self.
