Dissociation
Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Dissociation is often the mind’s way of surviving overwhelming or repeated trauma. I have experience working with military members, children in the foster care system with complex trauma, and adults healing from childhood neglect or abuse—contexts where dissociation often develops as a protective response. I use IFS, trauma-informed approaches, somatic awareness, mindfulness, and psychodynamic work to help clients build safety, grounding, and integration at their own pace. My diagnostic expertise supports careful differentiation between dissociation, PTSD, psychosis, or mood disorders, and I collaborate with prescribers when appropriate to ensure comprehensive care.

Dissociation
Ilyssa Swartout
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Dissociation can feel like being disconnected from yourself, your emotions, or the world around you. You may lose time, feel detached, or struggle to stay present. Therapy can help you safely reconnect with your thoughts and feelings, understand your inner experiences, and restore a sense of grounding and wholeness. Through gentle, trauma-informed approaches such as EMDR, DNMS, and Brainspotting, we’ll work to heal the parts of you that learned to separate as a form of protection—helping you feel more integrated, secure, and in control of your life.

Dissociation
Josh Murray- Hopeful Minds
Psychologist, MA, LLP
Dissociative identity disorder is associated with overwhelming experiences, traumatic events and/or abuse that occurred in childhood. Dissociative identity disorder was previously referred to as multiple personality disorder.
Symptoms of dissociative identity disorder (criteria for diagnosis) include:
The existence of two or more distinct identities (or “personality states”). The distinct identities are accompanied by changes in behavior, memory and thinking. The signs and symptoms may be observed by others or reported by the individual.
Ongoing gaps in memory about everyday events, personal information and/or past traumatic events.
The symptoms cause significant distress or problems in social, occupational or other areas of functioning.
In addition, the disturbance must not be a normal part of a broadly accepted cultural or religious practice.
With appropriate treatment, many people are successful in addressing the major symptoms of dissociative identity disorder and improving their ability to function and live a productive, fulfilling life.
Treatment typically involves psychotherapy. Therapy can help people gain control over the dissociative process and symptoms. The goal of therapy is to help integrate the different elements of identity. Therapy may be intense and difficult as it involves remembering and coping with past traumatic experiences. Cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy are two commonly used types of therapy. Hypnosis has also been found to be helpful in the treatment of dissociative identity disorder.
There are no medications to directly treat the symptoms of dissociative identity disorder. However, medication may be helpful in treating related conditions or symptoms, such as using antidepressants to treat symptoms of depression.
