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.

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.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Dissociation is often the mind’s way of surviving overwhelming or repeated trauma. I have experience working with military members, children in the foster care system with complex trauma, and adults healing from childhood neglect or abuse—contexts where dissociation often develops as a protective response. I use IFS, trauma-informed approaches, somatic awareness, mindfulness, and psychodynamic work to help clients build safety, grounding, and integration at their own pace. My diagnostic expertise supports careful differentiation between dissociation, PTSD, psychosis, or mood disorders, and I collaborate with prescribers when appropriate to ensure comprehensive care.

Milwaukee is one of the most racially segregated cities in the United States, and the mental health effects of systemic inequality, concentrated poverty, and community violence disproportionately affect its Black residents — driving demand for culturally affirming and trauma-informed therapists. The city has a strong Polish, German, and working-class heritage in many of its neighborhoods, and therapists frequently address intergenerational family dynamics, addiction, and depression tied to economic stress. Froedtert Hospital and the Medical College of Wisconsin provide major institutional mental health resources alongside community-based providers. Milwaukee's proximity to Chicago means some residents also access care in the broader metro corridor.
