Dissociation
Katrina Brown
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MH 17020
Surprisingly, everyone dissociates, but it is to what extent their dissociation impacts the quality of their lives. Trauma lies at the core of dissociation, and I have a 7-year specialty certification as a Clinical Master Traumatologist. I have had extensive master level training on trauma and dissociation and have worked with very high levels of clinical dissociation with clients for 12 years. Let me partner with you to reduce dissociative symptoms and help you improve your quality of life.

Dissociation
Lisa C. Holder
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC
Dissociative Disorders can be very difficult to live with and can be complicated to unwind in the therapeutic process. However, I have a great deal of professional experience with Dissociation. These states of mind are often rooted in traumatic situations or abuse. They range from mild to severe on the spectrum and there are many forms of dissociative disorders including DID. All of the forms can be treated with a variety of approaches including Somatic Therapy, Trauma Therapy, and EMDR.

Dissociation
Susanne R Mealer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
To what extent a person dissociates varies. Finding out where on the continuum you are is important. People dissociate to keep themselves safe physically, mentally and emotionally. This can become unsafe to do and the very thing that helped you survive can get in your way of living.

Dissociation
Dr. Elizabeth Coldren
Psychologist, PSYD, PSYPACT
I work with adults who feel disconnected from themselves in ways that can be hard to explain. Dissociation can look like going through the motions on autopilot, feeling far away or unreal, losing track of time when you’re stressed, or noticing that your emotions and body feel muted, numb, or out of sync. Some people describe it as feeling foggy, checked out, or like they’re watching their life from the outside. Many people I see function well in work or school while privately feeling detached or not fully present. You may have learned to shut down, go quiet inside, or “check out” to get through overwhelming situations, and those strategies can persist long after the original stress has passed. These patterns often develop in situations where you had to stay small, stay calm, or stay invisible to feel safe. Over time, dissociation can shape how you relate to yourself, how you make decisions, and how close you allow others to get. You may find it hard to trust your internal signals, access your emotions, or feel connected to your own preferences and needs. In our work together, we approach dissociation with respect for the ways it has protected you. We look at what your nervous system learned to do under pressure, how these patterns show up now, and what helps you feel more grounded and present without overwhelming the parts of you that have relied on distance to stay safe. The goal is not to get rid of dissociation, but to help you understand it, reduce its cost, and build a steadier connection to yourself so you can move through your life with more clarity, choice, and a deeper sense of being “here” in your own life.

Dissociation
Katherine Coder
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, PhD, LPC, LMHC
We dissociate because we are facing circumstances that feel life threatening. This can occur because we were really young when these threatening circumstances occurred or because what happened was extremely overpowering to us. Dissociation is a natural defensive strategy our bodies take to keep us safe. We approach dissociation through Deep Brain Reorienting to help the primitive brain process early life abandonment, conflicts, core aloneness pain, and other traumatic experiences that underpin the dissociative patterning.
