Philadelphia, Pennsylvania therapist: Ben Goldstein, licensed clinical social worker
Dissociative Disorders

Ben Goldstein

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Many people struggle with dissociative disorders and may not even be aware of it! Dissociation is a common reaction to distressing events in one's past, but it can also lead to emotional numbing or having trouble showing up in the present moment in one's life. In my work with people who experience dissociation, I gently try to engage all parts of the person, including the parts they'd rather push away, in order to integrate their experience into a more fully realized sense of self.

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania therapist: Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver, psychologist
Dissociative Disorders

Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver

Psychologist, Psy.D.
You don’t have to have a “dissociative disorder” to feel like you’re not fully in your life. If you’ve ever found yourself zoning out, emotionally numb, going through the motions, or feeling like you’re watching your life from the outside in—it might be dissociation. Many high-functioning women I work with experience dissociation as a trauma response, especially after years of emotional abuse, gaslighting, burnout, or chronic stress. It’s your brain’s way of protecting you when everything feels like too much for too long. You may feel: Foggy or forgetful, like your mind shuts down under stress Detached from your emotions, like you’re “numb” or robotic Overwhelmed in conflict but unable to respond in the moment Disconnected from your body—either hypersensitive or completely shut down Like you can’t focus, finish a thought, or remember what you were doing If you’re also parenting, managing a high-pressure career, or co-parenting with a narcissist, dissociation may show up even more. Especially if you’ve survived childhood trauma, toxic relationships, or are still living in a high-conflict or emotionally unsafe environment. Dissociation isn’t a disorder in itself—it’s a survival strategy. And it’s more common than you think. If you’ve been searching: Why do I feel emotionally numb? Do I have dissociation or brain fog? How trauma affects memory and focus High-functioning dissociation in women Parenting with CPTSD or emotional detachment Burnout and mental disconnection Dissociation from narcissistic abuse …you're not broken. You’re responding exactly how your nervous system was wired to protect you. I help high-achieving women safely reconnect with themselves after years of disconnection. Whether you’re recovering from narcissistic abuse, navigating post-separation trauma, or simply wondering why you feel so flat and far away from the person you used to be—there is a path back to you. One step at a time. With someone who truly understands the terrain. You don’t need a dissociative disorder diagnosis to know something is off. You just need support that gets it.

Richard P. Kluft

Psychiatrist, MD, PhD
This is an area of experience and expertise. I am widely published in this area, and developed many of the techniques currently employed in the field. I have brought over 200 patients to integration, with follow-ups of stable results of up to over 40 years in duration. Since these conditions involve high hypnotizability, hypnotic interventions may play a helpful role.
