Dissociation
Ilyssa Swartout
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Dissociation can feel like being disconnected from yourself, your emotions, or the world around you. You may lose time, feel detached, or struggle to stay present. Therapy can help you safely reconnect with your thoughts and feelings, understand your inner experiences, and restore a sense of grounding and wholeness. Through gentle, trauma-informed approaches such as EMDR, DNMS, and Brainspotting, we’ll work to heal the parts of you that learned to separate as a form of protection—helping you feel more integrated, secure, and in control of your life.

Dissociation
Lynda Griffin Bull
Counselor/Therapist, MC, LPC
Dissociation can occur when the mind tries to protect itself from overwhelming stress or trauma. You may experience feeling detached from your thoughts, emotions, or surroundings, or have difficulty staying present. In therapy, we approach these experiences with care and patience, focusing first on building safety, stability, and self-regulation. As trust develops, we can gently explore the underlying experiences that may have contributed to dissociation while helping you strengthen grounding skills and a more connected sense of self.

Dissociation
Emily Wilson
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I work with individuals experiencing dissociative disorders—such as identity disruption, memory gaps, depersonalization, or dissociative responses to trauma. My approach is trauma-informed and designed to provide safety, stabilization, and support in phases, allowing your system to build trust, resilience, and internal communication.
Using evidence-based modalities like EMDR (adapted for complex trauma), DBT-informed skills training, and integrative parts work, I help you regulate overwhelming emotions, ground into present-awareness, and gradually integrate fragmented experiences into a more cohesive sense of self. In a secure and compassionate setting—whether in-person or via telehealth—you will be empowered to reclaim control, connect with your parts, and move toward stability, coherence, and wholeness.

Dissociation
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with adults who feel disconnected from themselves in ways that can be hard to explain. Dissociation can look like going through the motions on autopilot, feeling far away or unreal, losing track of time when you’re stressed, or noticing that your emotions and body feel muted, numb, or out of sync. Some people describe it as feeling foggy, checked out, or like they’re watching their life from the outside. Many people I see function well in work or school while privately feeling detached or not fully present. You may have learned to shut down, go quiet inside, or “check out” to get through overwhelming situations, and those strategies can persist long after the original stress has passed. These patterns often develop in situations where you had to stay small, stay calm, or stay invisible to feel safe. Over time, dissociation can shape how you relate to yourself, how you make decisions, and how close you allow others to get. You may find it hard to trust your internal signals, access your emotions, or feel connected to your own preferences and needs. In our work together, we approach dissociation with respect for the ways it has protected you. We look at what your nervous system learned to do under pressure, how these patterns show up now, and what helps you feel more grounded and present without overwhelming the parts of you that have relied on distance to stay safe. The goal is not to get rid of dissociation, but to help you understand it, reduce its cost, and build a steadier connection to yourself so you can move through your life with more clarity, choice, and a deeper sense of being “here” in your own life.
