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.

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.

Havenwood Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Dissociation can leave you feeling disconnected from your emotions, memories, body, identity, or sense of what is happening around you. These experiences can be confusing, particularly when you don't understand why they happen. Therapy can provide a safe, paced environment to explore dissociation without forcing you to revisit experiences before you're ready.
Amanda has a particular interest in dissociation and supporting survivors of relational trauma, sexual abuse, and narcissistic abuse. Her trauma-informed approach integrates EMDR, IFS, somatic therapy, and other approaches to support greater safety, self-understanding, and reconnection.

Counsellor/Therapist, RCS, MTC, RTC, SEP, CCTP, CCISM, CFRC, CATP, NARM
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.

Kendra Anselmo Counselling
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Dissociation is often a protective response developed when experiences feel overwhelming or unsafe. Using an IFS and somatic approach, we’ll gently explore the parts of you that hold pain, fear, or protective responses while building greater connection, grounding, and safety within yourself. Therapy can support you in feeling more present, integrated, and connected to who you are.
