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.

Dissociative disorder is a disconnection between you relationship between you and yourself. The person can often feel spacey and disconnected from the rest of the word around them. The person often feels uncertain about their own self sense of identity.

Nina Hopmeier
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC)
Dissociation is often linked to a trauma response. Trauma is a reaction that individuals have in response to an event that they perceive as overwhelming. Responses to trauma can be so overwhelming that completing daily tasks, such as going to work or getting out of bed may be a struggle. A significant symptom of trauma is feeling as if the traumatic event is still happening, sometimes, even years after the event occurred. In order to protect from the perceived traumatic event, it is understandable that people may choose to "check out" or "dissociate" from the experience. One of the downfalls of dissociation is that individuals are brought further away from the present moment, which is safe and non-threatening. In our work together I provide strategies to cope with dissociation in order to feel safe and gain renewed hope for the future.

Mindful Connections Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist
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.

Most dissociative disorders come from an environmental failure or trauma (traumas). Understanding how they are created and what they serve, goes a long way to helping heal this and creating a new reality.
