Dissociation
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.

Dissociation
Dr. Sharareh Namjoo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Doctor of Psychology
Dissociation can be the mind’s way of protecting you when experiences feel overwhelming. It may involve feeling disconnected from your body, emotions, memories, identity, or surroundings. Although these experiences can feel frightening or confusing, they are not personal failures.
I approach dissociative symptoms with patience, compassion, and careful pacing. Therapy begins with safety, stabilization, grounding, and emotional regulation before deeper trauma processing is considered. Together, we work to understand protective patterns, strengthen present-moment awareness, and build a more integrated sense of safety, identity, and connection.
