Dissociation
Emma Poxon
Counsellor/Therapist, MA Person-Centred Experiential Counselling
Dissociation can feel completely overwhelming, like there's no way out. As your therapist I am here to be with you, reminding you that you are not alone. We can explore how dissociation feels for you, when it is at its worst, and help you to gain more of a sense of control over this. You are not a problem to be fixed, my aim as your therapist is to try to provide the right conditions to allow you to explore whatever you want to bring to therapy to support your growth. This isn't a therapeutic approach wherein I will set a treatment plan or tell you what to do. We will work together as a partnership rather than me taking away your autonomy. I absolutely love the work I do, it is the biggest privilege being let into people’s personal worlds and seeing the immense growth of my clients. I hope to hear from you soon!

Dissociation
Dr Grenville Major
Therapist, MBchB, MRCpsych, MSc psychological therapies
Dissociation is often a defence. A wall that keeps you safe from the traumas of the past and maybe those to come. The problem is it comes at a cost. You not connect with anything and the joy of living is greatly diminished. Therapy can ease you out of this space into a fuller life. I would like to meet with you to see what can be done to help you. This will enable us to get to know each other and see if we can work together. It’s important for you to work with someone you trust and feel safe with.

Dissociation
Claire de la Varre
Therapist, PhD, HGDipP
Dissociative disorders can develop as a response to overwhelming and often traumatic experiences. They have differing symptoms, but common to all of them is a lack of presence. We all zone out from time to time but dissociation can feel confusing or unsettling—it is the mind’s way of coping when other options are unavailable. Therapy provides a chance to understand these responses and the role they have played in protecting you. When you work with me, we will focus on helping you feel safe, building stability, and increasing self-awareness. We will also help you develop practical skills to increase presence and continuity in daily life.

Empowered Wellbeing, Decolonizing Intersectional and Integrative Complex Trauma & Dissociation Recovery Support
Life Coach, view my credentials online at: www.recoveringfromwithin.com/credentialslongform
Trauma based dissociative (parts) support has been our focus and specialization throughout (14+ years). Most brains dissociate to some degree, under deep strain and stress and even repeated strain, dissociation is a way that some brains adapt to the intensive or repeated stress/strain/torture. We draw from DBR (shock recovery work), CranioSacral brain support work, Parts (TIST, IFS, EFIT, IPNB, Bonnie Badenoch's work, ...and inner child work, somatic and expressive arts, neurodevelopmental support, as well as characterological structure work within an attachment theory, non pathologizing framework. We work with clients to identify parts, systems, adaptations, responses, alters ... and what activates them. We support with memory reconsolidation and integrative support. Via IFS, Polyvagal Theory, Attachment Theory, NVC and IPNB Integration Processes, we work through mapping the system and healing exiled parts. For integration we offer Eco-Relational support, Mindfulness, or whatever framework the client gravitates towards and feels safe with accessing. Please feel free to ask if you have any questions.

Bristol has a strong progressive and creative culture, and its therapy community reflects this — with high demand for therapists who specialise in LGBTQ+ identity, non-traditional relationship structures, eco-anxiety, and social-justice-informed approaches to mental health. The city has a significant student population across the University of Bristol and UWE Bristol, and therapists addressing academic pressure and young adult transitions are well represented. Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust provides public mental health services, with a private practice community concentrated in Clifton, Cotham, and Stokes Croft. Bristol's history of race-related civic tensions — including the 2020 removal of the Colston statue — has made racial identity and community healing ongoing themes in the city's therapy culture.
