Gregory Smith
Counselor/Therapist, LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor), BCPC
Dissociative Disorders, including DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder - formerly Multiple Personality Disorder), requires a very special set of skills and experience to help those suffering. I have spent most of my counseling career working with those that used dissociation to survive extremely difficult abuses with embedded intolerable conflicts. I have worked with all levels of PTSD and dissociation, including the worst where ritual abuse was used to create programmed alters. Deprogramming the human mind is not an easy task, but using the right approached, it can be achieved so that even the most traumatized individuals can go on to live their lives as it was originally intended. This type of therapy requires lots of patience and time on behalf of the therapist and client in order to be healed and restored from all the brokenness. Therefore, because of the nature and complication of resolving DID, longer sessions are required in order to make definitive progress.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Dissociation is often the mind’s way of surviving overwhelming or repeated trauma. I have experience working with military members, children in the foster care system with complex trauma, and adults healing from childhood neglect or abuse—contexts where dissociation often develops as a protective response. I use IFS, trauma-informed approaches, somatic awareness, mindfulness, and psychodynamic work to help clients build safety, grounding, and integration at their own pace. My diagnostic expertise supports careful differentiation between dissociation, PTSD, psychosis, or mood disorders, and I collaborate with prescribers when appropriate to ensure comprehensive care.

Allen Wood
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Dissociation often goes hand-in-hand with stress, trauma, and other forms of emotional overwhelm. While the spectrum of dissociation ranges from zoning out to complete shut-down, it can create invisible barriers between you and your goals. If you're feeling stuck, confused about why your best efforts in life aren't as satisfying, or have tried therapy without success then don't hesitate to reach out. In working together, we would use EMDR and Internal Family Systems interventions to identify the areas where you're finding those barriers and build the resources, skills, and regulation to be able to achieve those goals without losing yourself along the way.
