Dissociation
TREATMENT AND TOOLS FOR TRAUMA
Licensed Psychoanalyst, PH.D., IN PSYCHOANALYSIS AND NEUROSCIENCE, CERTIFIED PSYCHOANALYST, PSY.A, & LICENSED PSYCHOANALYST
Dissociative Disorders occur when the mind is overwhelmed and needs to "check out." This is an automatic process, especially when the person has nowhere to turn for relief from their suffering. Then the mind does its job to protect the person by disconnecting and "going" elsewhere. Dissociative Disorders are almost always the result of trauma, some type of traumatizing experience. In my experience, these kinds of disorders require long-term treatment 2-3 times per week. Just being present in the room with the patient is where I start. Creating a very safe environment that is conducive to talking about your experiences. As the patient begins to experience a safer space I will add the supplements, diet and exercise, and the creation of special "flow experiences" for the patient. You are welcome to call my office at 661-478-0667 for an evaluation.

Dissociation
Viktoria Walda Byczkiewicz, Ph.D.
Pre-Licensed Professional, PhD
Dissociation typically stems from trauma as a response to keeping a core part of the self safe. Human beings are neurologically wired to protect themselves from harm. Yet this learned response to abuse or terror may no longer serve its purpose and may be inhibiting you from living freely and fully engaging in meaningful activities or relationships. I can help you to explore--unobtrusively and at your pace--how to acquire mastery over the mechanisms that you developed to keep yourself safe.

Dissociation
Juliette Kuhlmann
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LMFT
My therapeutic approach is deeply informed by Structural Dissociation and Attachment theories. I understand the effect that trauma and stress can have on the mind and body, and the unique strategies our minds can use to protect us from what's overwhelming. You can explore your experience with dissociation at your pace and learn more about calming and self-soothing tools, alongside a clinician skilled in supporting your whole person and one mind.

Dissociation
Michelle Roberts
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Sometimes when our experiences overwhelm us, the body has an adaptive response of fragmenting into parts as a protective factor against harm. We can work together to get to know your parts and to determine what their highest-level needs are, and how each can experience more peace and belonging.

Dissociation
Sandy Kong
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT 119380
Unfortunately, many who suffer with Complex PTSD can also show signs of Dissociative Disorders. Dissociative disorders can severely disrupt daily functioning, making it difficult to maintain relationships or employment. It can cause significant confusion, as individuals may not remember past events, feel detached from their surroundings, or experience shifts in identity. I have experience working with all five major types of dissociative disorders: dissociative identity disorder (DID); dissociative amnesia (DA), including dissociative fugue (DF) as a subtype; depersonalization/derealization disorder (DPDRD); other specified dissociative disorders (OSDD); and unspecified dissociative disorders (UDD). Treatment focuses on connecting with the present, managing triggers, and processing trauma. Immediate steps include grounding techniques, developing safety, practicing self-care, and develop skills to identify and cope with personal triggers that worsen symptoms.

Modesto sits at the center of California's San Joaquin Valley and is shaped by its agricultural economy — the surrounding Stanislaus County produces almonds, milk, and poultry at nationally significant scale — with therapists frequently addressing the mental health effects of agricultural work, including seasonal income volatility and the physical and psychological demands of farm labor. The city has a large Hispanic population and a significant community of Punjabi Sikh agricultural workers and business owners, creating demand for bilingual and culturally informed therapists who understand immigration stress and cross-cultural family dynamics. Memorial Medical Center and Doctors Medical Center provide institutional mental health resources, while California State University Stanislaus supplies clinical training to the local community. Modesto's relatively high rates of poverty and crime create a therapy landscape in which economic stress and community trauma are recurring clinical themes.
