Therapy for Dissociative Disorders Online in the San Francisco Bay Area and Throughout California |
Clients come to me looking for a therapist who is authentic and relatable, because therapy should be a place where you feel safe and understood. Sessions with me provide the comfort of conversation with an old friend and the results of working with a trained professional. You can learn how to stop being scared to look inside and start seeing yourself as the survivor that you are.
I have specialized training and experience in practical, research-backed therapy modalities so you don't have to worry that your therapist will be confused when you're confused by yourself. I'll help you see the big picture, learn to identify when your dissociative coping mechanism starts to kick in, and start implementing grounding and calming skills to help you stay safe in your body from day one. I also bring my relational and complex trauma expertise to my work with couples. I understand that if you've been hurt in the past, relationships are harder for you! We'll focus on rebuilding trust and safety in the relationship first. |
Can I recover from a dissociative disorder? |
With the right therapy, dissociative disorders can be healed. You can begin to feel more in control of your life and your identity as separate parts of you integrate and merge into one cohesive sense of self.
|
Do you have online sessions? |
Yes, my practice is fully telehealth for the time-being. We'll meet via HIPAA secure video. You must be located in California during sessions.
|
What are your availability and fees? |
My client hours are Monday through Thursday 9am to 3pm. I do not offer weekend or evening sessions. Individual therapy sessions are $210 per 45-minute session and generally take place weekly.
|
How do you treat dissociation & dissociative disorders? |
My approach relies heavily on Dan Siegel's Interpersonal Neurobiology (IPNB) and Janina Fisher's therapeutic framework. I bring in tools from the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model as needed. I work relationally and psychodynamically, and through the lens of attachment theory and complex trauma.
