Dissociative Disorders (DID) Counselling in Sutton
Everyone faces challenges at various points in life. Some experiences can unsettle our sense of self, bringing sadness, pain, or confusion. No one is immune to hardship or trauma, but even in overwhelming moments, hope and healing are possible. Taking the step to allow yourself to feel better is both important and courageous. Therapy provides a space to pause, reflect, and make sense of what’s happening in your life. Together, we can explore your inner world, understand how past experiences may be influencing you now, and discover new, healthier ways to cope with challenges.

Maybe you seem to cope on the outside, while inside you're exhausted from holding everything together. You might overthink, people-please, feel overwhelmed, struggle in relationships or notice the same patterns repeating. Perhaps experiences from your past are still shaping how you feel today, or you've simply lost sight of what you need. You may also know you're ADHD or autistic, be exploring whether you're neurodivergent, or have spent years masking and adapting to fit in. Whatever brings you to therapy, we can begin by making sense of your experiences together.

Perhaps you understand why you struggle, but something still doesn't change. You may be anxious, stuck, people-pleasing, repeating painful relationship patterns, or simply feel you've somehow lost yourself. We are not psychologically mono: under trauma, loss or prolonged stress, parts of us can become hidden or exiled while others take over the job of coping. My work asks a different question: who is missing? Together we investigate what happened, what you feel in the body, and what part of you may need to be retrieved. Sometimes the part we find isn't the wounded one. It's your confidence, creativity, voice or power.

Dissociative Disorders (DID) Counsellors
How does therapy for dissociative disorders work?
Dissociation may be triggered by stress or other upsetting circumstances, and therapy can address the traumatic events at the core of an individual’s dissociation. Understanding why a person may dissociate can help the therapist and the individual come up with alternative methods of coping. A person with a dissociative disorder may get stuck on negative thinking, for example, and treatment like Cognitive behavioural therapy is a gold standard for breaking such thinking. And dialectical behaviour therapy, for example, can help a person manage their anguish through better emotion regulation.
Which therapies are best for dissociative disorders?
Specific approaches used by professionals include cognitive behavioural, dialectical behaviour, psychodynamic, schema therapies, among others. Cognitive behavioural and dialectical behaviour therapies are two widely used therapies that can help individuals with painful memories and past traumas. These therapies work to integrate an individual's different identities into one person.
Are there specific medications for dissociation?
There are no specific medications prescribed for dissociative disorders. However, psychosis, depression, anxiety, and/or panic often co-occur in dissociative disorders. A psychiatrist may prescribe medications for any accompanying symptom which may include antipsychotics, antidepressants, or anti-anxiety drugs.
How often and how long are therapy sessions?
Like any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual. Patients may see improvement within 15 to 20 sessions, at an average of 50 minutes per session, others may opt for 20 to 30 sessions over, perhaps, a six-month period. There are still other patients, especially those who have co-occurring conditions like depression and anxiety, who may need to continue sessions for up to 12 to 18 months.
