Dissociation
Dawn McCarthy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Living with dissociation can feel like watching your own life from a distance, experiencing unsettling gaps in time, or feeling deeply disconnected from your body and emotions. I provide a safe, highly stabilized space for individuals navigating dissociative disorders, helping them move from a state of fragmentation toward safety and internal cohesion. Because dissociation is the brain's brilliant way of surviving overwhelming trauma, my approach honors your coping mechanisms while gently helping you heal. We utilize Internal Family Systems (IFS) to compassionately meet and communicate with the different "parts" of your system, alongside advanced brain-body therapies like EMDR and Brainspotting to process the underlying trauma at a pace that keeps you safely grounded. Together, we will work to reduce the distress of disconnection, strengthen your window of tolerance, and help you feel safely anchored in the present moment.

Dissociation
Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
There are different kinds of dissociative disorders. If you have DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder), then unfortunately I lack training in that area.
However, if you chronically are feeling dissociated, disconnected from your body and/or the present moment, and want to be able to be more in the here and now, I absolutely have training around that. Somatic Experiencing can be very effective at slowly and gently supporting your nervous system to move out of freeze (dissociation) and into a more vital, grounded headspace.

Dissociation
Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Psychotherapist, Psychoanalyst
I specialize in working with dissociation, including with patients living with dissociative identity disorder (DID). Dissociation is our mind’s way of keeping us safe when life becomes overwhelming, a creative act of survival rather than a defect. Our work together is slow and collaborative, creating space for different parts of you to come into relationship, build trust, and feel more connected within yourself, always honoring your timing and readiness. I am not an advocate of integration of alters/parts, but rather an advocate of inter-part communication; much like a board meeting, parts should be able to communicate with one another and support one another, rather than work divisively.
