Dr. Patricia Webbink
Psychologist, MA and PhD in Clinical Psychology
For many years I have worked individually with clients who suffer with Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), as well as in couples, families, and group settings. Popular books such as "Three faces of Eve" and "I Never Promised you a Rose Garden" illustrate what this"split personality" condition can be like. Many clients with DID find healing through Hypnosis. The therapeutic goal is the integration of the various identities. Some of these clients are using medication prescribed by psychiatrists as well. Also, I have worked with other therapists' clients with DID when the therapists were on vacation. Clients with this diagnosis often take a large proportion of a clinician's time, and the responsible therapist cannot leave without having adequate cover. My free zoom seminars provide an opportunity to sample what it is like to work with me. Please feel free to call for info or a consultation: 301-229-8000

Dissociative disorders can present with complex symptoms such as memory gaps, identity confusion, and emotional disconnection. Our practice focuses on carefully coordinated care, using medication management to target associated conditions like depression, anxiety, or PTSD. We work closely with referring therapists and care teams to support long-term stabilization and integration, always prioritizing safety and patient trust.

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.

Tiyahna M
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC,LPCMH,NCC,C-DBT
I use a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to support clients with dissociation disorders by increasing awareness, stability, and emotional regulation. Therapy focuses on understanding dissociative patterns, strengthening grounding skills, and building tolerance for distress while staying present. The approach is structured, compassionate, and paced carefully to promote safety, integration, and a greater sense of control in daily life.

Stacey Hellman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-C
Dissociation operates on a spectrum and dissociative disorders occur as a direct result of long-term trauma starting in early childhood and continuing throughout adolescence. Dissociation is a childhood survival strategy but can be disempowering in adulthood and actually cause problems. I am trauma certified and can provide psychoeducation about trauma and dissociation. I teach clients how to recognize when a dissociative episode is about to happen and can provide simple, concrete grounding tools to help clients prevent dissociation, and how to "bring themselves back" if they do become dissociated. We can practice these tools over and over in session with the intention of clients using them on their own in-between sessions as much as possible. The best way to learn these tools is to practice them when the client ISN'T dissociated so that over time it becomes more natural and the client doesn't have to think too hard about what to do or how to do them. I provide an in-depth evaluation at the beginning of therapy to determine the level/degree of dissociation a person may be experiencing.
