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.

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.

Jennifer Canu
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Dissociation in and of itself is not pathological. However when one has experienced or is experiencing extreme stress, anxiety, trauma or other challenges, dissociation may become significantly disruptive in one's life and even cause significant personality change. I utilize an integrated approach incorporating parts work (IFS), psychoeducation, and EMDR therapy to increase sense of safety, reduce overwhelm, and increase one's window-of-tolerance for the here-and-now.

Sabrina Gramatica
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, AMFT
In my work with dissociative disorders, I recognize that these conditions are often rooted in trauma, where dissociation becomes a coping mechanism for overwhelming or unbearable experiences. My approach is grounded in trauma-informed care, understanding that dissociation serves as a protective response when the mind struggles to integrate distressing memories or emotions. Using modalities like parts work (IFS), psychodynamic therapy, and somatic approaches, I help clients reconnect with fragmented aspects of themselves in a safe, gradual manner. Through this process, we work to rebuild a cohesive sense of self, integrate traumatic memories, and restore emotional regulation, empowering clients to move toward healing and wholeness.
