Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Sometimes in life, an experience so traumatic happens that my psyche splits and cuts off part of myself in order to protect myself from what happened. It was a defensive mechanism at the time of the trauma to protect me from my incapacity to process it, but now its also created a situation where part of me is cut off from the other part of me. If I stay this way, I remain stuck in a fragmented or wounded place psychologically. The reality is we all want to be whole and part of healing may involve a process of reintegrating all the parts of myself with each other. If you think you may be dissociating, call us. We would come alongside you to help you.

Greta Klaber
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
When working with dissociation, I take a somatic and parts-oriented approach rooted in my training in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy and the TIST model (a trauma-informed parts framework). Dissociation is often the nervous system’s way of managing overwhelming or unresolved experiences. Rather than seeing it as something to get rid of, I help clients understand it as a meaningful and protective response.
Together, we work to gently track dissociative patterns, build awareness of what's happening in the body and nervous system, and begin reconnecting with parts of the self that may have been cut off or pushed aside. Through psychoeducation, experiential work, and compassionate curiosity, we begin to repair internal disconnection and foster communication between parts. From this perspective, I see internal conflict not as a problem, but as a sign of growing integration and movement toward healing.

Tim Eby-McKenzie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Dissociation is the mind's defense against persistent or severe trauma and neglect. It is when a person disconnects from their thoughts, feelings, memories or sense of identity. This process is an amazing defense/survival mechanism, but it also leads to patterns that interfere with normal functioning. Ego-state work, combined with EMDR works to heal the profoundly painful impact of this type of trauma, and leads to significantly enhanced resilience and the ability to experience joy, love and belonging - both internally, and in relationships with others.
