Dissociation
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.

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.

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.

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.

Daniel Klassen
Psychologist, Provisional, (P7619) with CAP in Alberta & Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC 19147) with BCACC, for elsewhere in Canada
Dissociation is more common than many people realize—everyone experiences it to some degree. Everyday moments, like instinctively reaching for a phone in a waiting room to avoid boredom or briefly forgetting where you placed your keys after walking into the house, are mild forms of dissociation. These instances reflect a temporary shift in attention—a momentary disconnection from the present environment in favor of something more engaging or less stressful. Even consciously avoiding unpleasant thoughts or situations can be a subtle form of dissociation, and in these milder forms, it’s not inherently pathological.
However, dissociation can become disruptive when it deepens into a more profound detachment from one’s identity or reality. In these cases, individuals may find themselves acting in ways that feel foreign or out of character, losing chunks of time that others remember, or sensing that different parts of themselves are in conflict. Such experiences can lead to confusion, inner turmoil, and a fragmented sense of self, significantly impacting daily functioning and emotional well-being.
Daniel, a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional Level II (CCTP-II), specializes in helping individuals who experience more severe forms of dissociation, including derealization and depersonalization. With deep expertise and compassion, he supports clients in understanding their dissociative experiences and guides them toward greater self-awareness, integration, and emotional stability.
Daniel offers both brief screening for dissociation and comprehensive, customized assessments that evaluate a wide range of personality difficulties, trauma, and commonly co-occurring concerns. He welcomes inquiries regarding this and other psychological testing services he provides.

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.

Transformative Dissociative Disorder Therapy: Reconnect with Your True Self in Reality
Hi, I'm Tracey, and I’m here to guide you on a gentle, healing journey if you’re struggling with dissociation—a coping mechanism that may have helped you survive a painful childhood or overwhelming reality. If you’re a creative, sensitive soul who’s felt like you’re floating above it all to escape emotional, physical, or sexual violations, I see you. Those experiences, often rooted in early life, can leave you feeling disconnected from yourself. My dissociative disorder therapy practice offers a safe, compassionate space to come back home to your body and heart.
A Trauma-Informed Path to Reintegration
Dissociation often begins as a way to protect oneself from unsafe or repeated boundary violations. In our work together, we’ll focus on healing those core wounds, helping you feel safe enough to stay present in your body. We’ll move slowly, creating a shared, nurturing space where you can reconnect with your sensations and emotions without fear. I’ll guide you in addressing the deeper relationship within yourself, exploring what keeps you running from your truth, so you can gently reintegrate reality and find peace.
My approach is trauma-informed, intuitive, and tailored to your unique story. We’ll work on rebuilding your sense of safety, setting healthy boundaries, and honouring your sensitivity as a strength. As you begin to feel secure in your body, dissociation naturally starts to heal, allowing you to live more fully in the present, connected to your authentic self.
Start Your Healing Journey Today
You don’t have to stay disconnected or carry this alone. If you’re ready to heal from dissociation, reconnect with your body, and embrace your true self, I’m here to support you with warmth and care. Let’s create a safe space to rediscover your strength and wholeness. Book a consultation with me today, and let’s take that first step together.

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.

Dissociation
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.

Dissociation
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.

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.
