Emily Rowe
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I provide specialized care for individuals experiencing dissociative disorders, helping clients who may feel disconnected from themselves or their surroundings. Using trauma-informed, evidence-based therapies like CBT and ACT, I support clients in grounding themselves, managing symptoms, and reconnecting with their emotions and identity. Together, we’ll work on building safety, stability, and greater self-awareness to help you feel more present and in control.

Dissociative Disorders
Nancy Hayes-Gary, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, MD , Psy.D.
Grounding, soothing, and leaning to separate out past trauma from present reality helps decrease dissociation. I also approach this with some of the approaches I’ve already mentioned. People who dissociate are often plagued with past thoughts or memories of a very difficult time. Exploring childhood patterns of family interactions gives one a key to understanding their dissociation as a trauma response. Also essential is the learning of other trauma responses that don’t come with the down sides of dissociating, like memory problems or depersonalization/derealization anxiety.

Dissociative Disorders
Kimberly Zacher
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC, SAC
Dissociative disorders can involve feeling disconnected from your thoughts, memories, emotions, or even your sense of identity. You might experience memory gaps, a sense of watching yourself from the outside, or feeling like the world around you is unreal. These experiences are often rooted in trauma and can be confusing or frightening. I offer a safe, grounded space to explore and gently work through these symptoms using trauma-informed approaches such as EMDR, parts work like IFS, and somatic therapies. Together, we focus on restoring a sense of safety, integration, and connection to self.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
When people experience trauma, the mind has a wonderful way of protecting us from the pain that sometimes comes at the service of disconnecting from ourselves.

Madison is home to the University of Wisconsin — one of the top research universities in the country — and serves as Wisconsin's state capital, giving it an unusually high concentration of academics, researchers, and government professionals who collectively represent one of the most therapy-positive demographics in the Midwest. The city's progressive political culture and high rate of higher education strongly correlate with high therapy utilization and acceptance across multiple demographics. UW Health and SSM Health St. Mary's Hospital provide institutional mental health resources, with a well-developed private practice community serving Willy Street, Atwood, and the Near East Side. Madison's growing Latino and East African communities — particularly Hmong and Somali residents — are increasing demand for multilingual and culturally grounded therapists.
