Dissociation
Somatic Healing Arts, Psychotherapy and Wellness
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (qualifying), MA-ExAT
Dissociative disorders often involve feeling disconnected from one’s thoughts, emotions, or body. This disconnection can show up as numbness, zoning out, or a sense of being detached from reality. Approaches like art therapy and sensorimotor therapy gently engage both body and mind, helping individuals safely reconnect with their sensations and emotions, process experiences, and build a stronger sense of presence, integration, and self-awareness.

Semra Lamky, Emotional Peace Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP), Canadian Certified Counsellor (CCC), MACP, Bsc
I provide trauma-informed support for individuals experiencing dissociative disorders, including depersonalization, derealization, and dissociative identity disorder (DID). Dissociation is often a response to overwhelming or unresolved trauma and can leave you feeling disconnected from your body, identity, or reality. In our work together, I create a safe and grounded therapeutic space where we gently explore your experiences at your pace. Using integrative approaches such as EMDR, parts work, and psychodynamic therapy, I help you build safety, self-awareness, and inner cohesion, supporting your journey toward healing and wholeness.

Dissociation
Havenwood Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Dissociation can leave you feeling disconnected from your emotions, memories, body, identity, or sense of what is happening around you. These experiences can be confusing, particularly when you don't understand why they happen. Therapy can provide a safe, paced environment to explore dissociation without forcing you to revisit experiences before you're ready.
Amanda has a particular interest in dissociation and supporting survivors of relational trauma, sexual abuse, and narcissistic abuse. Her trauma-informed approach integrates EMDR, IFS, somatic therapy, and other approaches to support greater safety, self-understanding, and reconnection.

Dissociation
Marjan Emami
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, RTC #3608, MPCC-Provisional #4797, ACTA #3122
Dissociation as a protective, adaptive response to trauma rather than a conscious choice. When emotions are suppressed or invalidated, especially in childhood, the mind may disengage to maintain safety. I guide clients to reconnect with their bodies, explore their emotions, and be curious and compassionate to reintegrate the self.

Dissociation
Daniel Klassen
Psychologist, Provisional, (P7619) with CAP in Alberta & Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC 19147) with BCACC, for elsewhere in Canada
Dissociation is more common than many people realize—everyone experiences it to some degree. Everyday moments, like instinctively reaching for a phone in a waiting room to avoid boredom or briefly forgetting where you placed your keys after walking into the house, are mild forms of dissociation. These instances reflect a temporary shift in attention—a momentary disconnection from the present environment in favor of something more engaging or less stressful. Even consciously avoiding unpleasant thoughts or situations can be a subtle form of dissociation, and in these milder forms, it’s not inherently pathological.
However, dissociation can become disruptive when it deepens into a more profound detachment from one’s identity or reality. In these cases, individuals may find themselves acting in ways that feel foreign or out of character, losing chunks of time that others remember, or sensing that different parts of themselves are in conflict. Such experiences can lead to confusion, inner turmoil, and a fragmented sense of self, significantly impacting daily functioning and emotional well-being.
Daniel, a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional Level II (CCTP-II), specializes in helping individuals who experience more severe forms of dissociation, including derealization and depersonalization. With deep expertise and compassion, he supports clients in understanding their dissociative experiences and guides them toward greater self-awareness, integration, and emotional stability.
Daniel offers both brief screening for dissociation and comprehensive, customized assessments that evaluate a wide range of personality difficulties, trauma, and commonly co-occurring concerns. He welcomes inquiries regarding this and other psychological testing services he provides.
