Dissociation
Marc Donegan, Psychotherapist
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychodynamic Analysis & Transactional Analysis, PACFA, BACP, ITTA, EATA, UKATA
Dissociation is often the mind’s way of surviving something too overwhelming to process in the moment, whether that’s a single event or prolonged early experience. I work with clients to build a sense of safety and grounding first, then gently reconnect with the parts of experience that have been split off, using trauma-informed approaches alongside Transactional Analysis to make sense of the underlying script.

Dissociation
Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns) Dist, Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
Due to my background in nursing and mental health, I have a good understanding of dissociative disorder issues including dissociative identity disorder (DID) and it can impact the person, including the potential impacts for those around them. I can utilise specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session to support greater healing of the often underlying past trauma, without the need to discuss the details of the trauma. These gentle but effective techniques create a greater connection with sense of self.
My aim is to assist you with your dissociative difficulties to restore balance, happiness and inner peace (using the various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods) along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.
