Dissociative Disorders
Liberation Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC
Dissociation is a very intelligent survival response to overwhelming experiences. It can look like feeling numb, disconnected from your body, losing time, spacing out, or feeling like you are watching your life from the outside. I work slowly and carefully with dissociation, focusing first on safety, grounding, and building a stable internal sense of self. We go at a pace that does not retraumatize or overwhelm your nervous system.

Dissociative Disorders
Diane Vaillancourt
Pre-Licensed Professional, M.A., psychotherapist, Life Coach
Dissociative disorder is the result of a traumatic experience that leaves a person unable to function properly. Dissociative disorder helps a person to survive an assault, rape and/or incest and other major traumatic experiences such as war and natural disaster. I work PTSD using a technique in recalling the traumatic experience. It again asked courage as it is a painful process. That's why I complemented this process with EFT and Energy Healing to ease the process. When dissociative disorder was a way to survive a trauma it comes a time where it interrupts the day to day functioning.

Dissociative Disorders
Jenn Coonce
Licensed Psychoanalyst, Licensed Psychoanalyst, New York State
Struggles with dissociative disorders can lead to problems with relationships, work, or other areas of our lives. Through a cooperative, supportive relationship with the right therapist, you can explore how to address your dissociative disorder and how these struggles may impact your happiness and ability to get what you want. By talking with someone you trust and feel comfortable with, I believe anyone can learn to know themselves better and to get more of what they want from life.

Dissociative Disorders
Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, 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.
