Corey Lesperance
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying); RP(Q)
Some clients seek help in living with diagnoses or symptoms of dissociative disorders, that distract them from their life and can be disorienting or even frightening. I help them develop tools to first process this fear and apprehension, and then explore what causes this to happen, and how we can work on increasing their control, or reducing their anxiety.

Teo Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, CCC, RPq
Dissociative disorders can often arise as a coping mechanism when individuals experience overwhelming stress or trauma. When emotions or memories become too intense to process, the mind may "shut down" or "disconnect" as a way to protect itself. I specialize in helping individuals with dissociative disorders, utilizing techniques that help expand their window of tolerance—the range of emotional intensity a person can experience before feeling overwhelmed. By using EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness, I support clients in processing past trauma, increasing emotional regulation, and integrating fragmented aspects of the self, ultimately promoting healing and emotional stability.

Ariana N. Zeppieri-Makhan
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Through my work with trauma survivors, I have come to work with the dissociative disorders. With a constant eye to safety and grounding, I have guided clients through reflective and experiential exercises to explore their understanding of their experiences and ways in which they may cope or overcome their perceptual challenges.
Since my undergraduate degree, I have been motivated to work with individuals experiencing dissociative disorders. I read a number of first-person accounts, as well as articles, and watched countless interviews with afflicted individuals, expert professionals, and close others in the early days of this pursuit. I continue to read what I can and gain insight from those afflicted, where possible.

Bhavna Lalwani
Registered Psychotherapist, MA Counselling, RP
Dissociation can be a way the mind copes with overwhelming trauma, including experiences like childhood abuse, domestic violence, or other forms of severe stress. You might notice feeling disconnected from your thoughts, emotions, or even your body, sometimes experiencing memory gaps, “zoning out,” or feeling like an observer in your own life.
In therapy, I provide a safe and grounding space to explore these experiences, understand the connection between trauma and dissociation, and develop strategies to feel more present, integrated, and in control. The goal is to help you reconnect with yourself and reclaim a sense of safety, stability, and self-trust.

Melissa Huang
Registered Psychotherapist, (Qualifying), MA
When life has been overwhelming, sometimes the mind protects you by disconnecting: from your feelings, your body, your memories, or the moment you're in. Dissociation can feel frightening and isolating, but it makes sense as a survival response, and it can change. Here you'll find a warm, nonjudgmental space where we move at your pace, build safety and grounding first, and gently work with the experiences underneath. The goal isn't just to manage the fog, it's to genuinely understand yourself, help the disconnected parts of your experience feel safe again, and come home to your own life. Together we'll work toward feeling more present, more whole, and more equipped to navigate your world.

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.

Ps. I Love You Psychotherapy | M. Caracciolo Professional Corporation
Registered Psychotherapist, HBEd, MA (Hons.), Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), C-DBT
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.

Sierra Gaudreault
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Dissociation is a natural and protective response when our nervous system is dysregulated. However, sometimes dissociation can create challenges when we or others are unsure what's happening or how to respond to it in helpful ways. I use a nonjudgemental and dissociation-affirming approach to help you understand your dissociation, honour the ways your body has kept and continues to keep you safe, and build a grounding toolkit that actually works for you. I also offer trauma therapy to help you heal from experiences that may be keeping you trapped in this survival response.

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.
