Maggie Davidson
Psychologist, MC, Registered Psychologist
Your past does not have to be your future. Dissociation is a common response to trauma. While dissociation may seem alarming, it is possible to work through it with a knowledgeable therapist. I have experience and training in working with dissociation and I can help you understand and work through it. Please contact me if you would like to set up a free intake and we can get started on the process of helping you move forward with your future.

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.

Mariya Garnet
Therapist, Registered Psychotherapist ( Qualifying)
Dissociation is one of the body's most intelligent responses to overwhelming experience. It can look like spacing out, feeling unreal, losing time, or living at a distance from your own life. Many people do not recognize it because it has been their normal for so long. I work somatically and gently to help you rebuild connection to your body and your present experience, at a pace your nervous system can actually tolerate. We do not force contact. We create the conditions for it to return.

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.

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.
