Dissociation
Marina Rozenberg, MD
Therapist, MD
Dissociative disorders often emerge as protective responses to overwhelming or fragmented early experiences, including trauma. In psychodynamic psychotherapy, we work to uncover and understand the unconscious conflicts and emotional wounds underlying dissociation. By exploring these inner dynamics in a safe, consistent therapeutic relationship, you can begin to integrate dissociated aspects of the self and develop a more cohesive, grounded sense of identity. This process supports deep, lasting healing and greater emotional continuity.

Dissociation
Greta Klaber
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ma, LMFT
When working with dissociation, I take a somatic and parts-oriented approach rooted in my training in Sensorimotor Psychotherapy and the TIST model (a trauma-informed parts framework). Dissociation is often the nervous system’s way of managing overwhelming or unresolved experiences. Rather than seeing it as something to get rid of, I help clients understand it as a meaningful and protective response.
Together, we work to gently track dissociative patterns, build awareness of what's happening in the body and nervous system, and begin reconnecting with parts of the self that may have been cut off or pushed aside. Through psychoeducation, experiential work, and compassionate curiosity, we begin to repair internal disconnection and foster communication between parts. From this perspective, I see internal conflict not as a problem, but as a sign of growing integration and movement toward healing.

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.

Dissociation
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.

Dissociation
Daniel Pagano
Licensed Psychoanalyst, PhD, LP, SCC
Dissociation is a brilliant survival strategy where the psyche fragments to protect itself. Using a Jungian lens, we create a safe space for these parts to be heard and reintegrated. This "re-membering" restores innate wholeness, moving you from a fractured to a spiritually integrated life. We view dissociation as a spiritual defense that once saved you. Our work gently bridges your conscious self with hidden inner worlds holding your history and creativity. Cultivating compassion for these aspects releases the need for separation, allowing you to embody your full, vibrant spirit. Healing dissociation is a profound journey of soul retrieval, gathering lost identity pieces back to the Self. We use deep listening and symbolic work to transform fragmentation's chaos into a coherent narrative. This integration allows you to be present, grounded, and experience deep spiritual unity and peace.

Amy Merbaum Althoff
Licensed Psychoanalyst, MA in Psychoanalysis
I'm a generalist mental health practitioner—which means I'm trained in multiple therapeutic approaches and work across a wide range of psychological and emotional issues rather than specializing in just one. I offer both short- and long-term therapy for people facing challenges like relationships, work stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, serious illness, and major life transitions. This flexibility allows me to meet you where you are, assess what's actually going on, and adapt my approach to what will serve you best. My practice is built to be inclusive and welcoming for people from all backgrounds and circumstances.

Staten Island's suburban character and strong Italian-American and Eastern European heritage shape a therapy culture that has historically carried some skepticism about mental health treatment, even as demand has grown substantially. The borough was among the hardest hit in New York City by the opioid epidemic, and therapists specializing in addiction recovery, grief, and trauma from loss remain a central part of the community's mental health infrastructure. Staten Island University Hospital provides institutional mental health resources, while private practices are concentrated in Stapleton, Todt Hill, and the North Shore. Many residents also access therapy in New Jersey or Manhattan, reflecting the borough's geographic position at the outer edge of the city.
