Open Hearted Holistic Therapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Dissociation is a very normal survival strategy that shows up as a response to distressing events. It can be a mercy and can keep us alive at times and then sometimes it can also keep us from connecting with others when we want to. It goes hand-in-hand with trauma work and understanding dissociation is a part of being trauma informed. Instead of looking at dissociation as a bad thing, I look at it as a survival strategy, without judgment.

AL Kaibzhanov, Psychotherapist & Coach | Anxiety, Trauma & EMDR Therapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, LCSW
Dissociative Disorders can develop as a response to overwhelming experiences or trauma and may involve feeling disconnected from yourself, your emotions, or your surroundings. I provide a safe and compassionate space to explore these experiences while building grounding skills and emotional stability. Treatment focuses on increasing awareness, safety, and integration while moving at a pace that feels manageable.

Dr. Mitchell Roth
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, JD, PsyD, LMHC
Dissociative disorders result from adaptation to emotionally or physically painful circumstances beyond the control of the patient. Finding and resolving the feelings avoided through dissociation restores the availability of normal feelings. Internal family therapy treatment is particularly helpful in this area.

Athens is home to the University of Georgia and has cultivated a reputation as one of the South's most vibrant college cities, with a legendary music scene—birthplace of R.E.M. and the B-52s—a strong arts community, and a progressive political culture that contrasts with the surrounding rural Georgia context, producing a city with a well-developed and diverse therapy landscape relative to its size. UGA's Counseling and Psychiatric Services (CAPS) is the primary mental health resource for the city's enormous student population, and a well-developed private therapy sector serves the broader community including university staff, the arts and music community, and permanent residents. The sharp economic inequality between the university and creative communities and the city's lower-income and Black neighborhoods is an important dimension of the mental health landscape, and therapists in Athens work across a wide range of economic and cultural contexts. Common therapy concerns include student mental health, creative community stress, identity and LGBTQ+ issues, racial equity, and the challenges of a city where prosperity and poverty exist in close proximity.
