Dissociative Disorders
Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
You don’t have to have a “dissociative disorder” to feel like you’re not fully in your life.
If you’ve ever found yourself zoning out, emotionally numb, going through the motions, or feeling like you’re watching your life from the outside in—it might be dissociation. Many high-functioning women I work with experience dissociation as a trauma response, especially after years of emotional abuse, gaslighting, burnout, or chronic stress. It’s your brain’s way of protecting you when everything feels like too much for too long.
You may feel:
Foggy or forgetful, like your mind shuts down under stress
Detached from your emotions, like you’re “numb” or robotic
Overwhelmed in conflict but unable to respond in the moment
Disconnected from your body—either hypersensitive or completely shut down
Like you can’t focus, finish a thought, or remember what you were doing
If you’re also parenting, managing a high-pressure career, or co-parenting with a narcissist, dissociation may show up even more. Especially if you’ve survived childhood trauma, toxic relationships, or are still living in a high-conflict or emotionally unsafe environment. Dissociation isn’t a disorder in itself—it’s a survival strategy. And it’s more common than you think.
If you’ve been searching:
Why do I feel emotionally numb?
Do I have dissociation or brain fog?
How trauma affects memory and focus
High-functioning dissociation in women
Parenting with CPTSD or emotional detachment
Burnout and mental disconnection
Dissociation from narcissistic abuse
…you're not broken. You’re responding exactly how your nervous system was wired to protect you.
I help high-achieving women safely reconnect with themselves after years of disconnection.
Whether you’re recovering from narcissistic abuse, navigating post-separation trauma, or simply wondering why you feel so flat and far away from the person you used to be—there is a path back to you. One step at a time. With someone who truly understands the terrain.
You don’t need a dissociative disorder diagnosis to know something is off. You just need support that gets it.

Dissociative Disorders
Greta Cowles Consulting
Life Coach, LMFT, SEP, PIT, Trauma Stress Studies
These disorders are caused by trauma and are a natural mechanism to deal with trauma: somatic therapies support the processing of the trauma, which is held in the body and can be discharged, such that one does not dissociate in the future.

Dissociative Disorders
Allen Wood
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Dissociation often goes hand-in-hand with stress, trauma, and other forms of emotional overwhelm. While the spectrum of dissociation ranges from zoning out to complete shut-down, it can create invisible barriers between you and your goals. If you're feeling stuck, confused about why your best efforts in life aren't as satisfying, or have tried therapy without success then don't hesitate to reach out. In working together, we would use EMDR and Internal Family Systems interventions to identify the areas where you're finding those barriers and build the resources, skills, and regulation to be able to achieve those goals without losing yourself along the way.

Dissociative Disorders
Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
There are different kinds of dissociative disorders. If you have DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder), then unfortunately I lack training in that area.
However, if you chronically are feeling dissociated, disconnected from your body and/or the present moment, and want to be able to be more in the here and now, I absolutely have training around that. Somatic Experiencing can be very effective at slowly and gently supporting your nervous system to move out of freeze (dissociation) and into a more vital, grounded headspace.

Dissociative Disorders
Dr. Tuvia Hoffman
Psychologist, Psychologist, PhD
Dissociative disorders can be a challenging and disorienting experience, but targeted support can make a significant difference. I specialize in treating dissociative disorders with a focus on understanding and integrating the complexities of dissociation. Through evidence-based approaches such as Trauma-Informed Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I work with clients to address symptoms, enhance self-awareness, and develop coping strategies. Together, we will explore the underlying causes of dissociation, work on stabilizing your sense of self, and foster a more cohesive and grounded sense of identity. My goal is to support you in achieving greater emotional stability and a more connected and fulfilling life.
