Dissociation 101: The go-to guide for understanding your dissociative
disorder, breaking the stigma, and healing from trauma-related
dissociation.
"Just as important as The Body Keeps the Score (but an easier read for
me)."
--5-star reader review
Guided by clinical counselor Jamie Marich--a trauma-informed clinician
living with a dissociative disorder herself--this book tells you
everything you need to know about dissociation...but were too afraid to
ask.
Here, you'll learn:
-
What dissociation is--and why it's a natural response to trauma
-
How to understand and work with your "parts"--the unique emotional and
behavioral profiles that can develop from personality fragmentation
-
There's nothing shameful about dissociating--that, in fact, we can
all dissociate
-
Skills and strategies for living your best, authentic, and most
fulfilled life
-
What to look for in a therapist: choosing a healer who sees you and
gets it
-
Foundational elements of healing from trauma, including PTSD and
C-PTSD
With practical guided exercises like "The Dissociative Profile" and
"Parts Mapping," this book is written for those diagnosed with
dissociative disorders, clinicians and therapists who treat trauma and
dissociation, and readers who are exploring whether they may have
dissociative symptoms or a condition like dissociative identity disorder
(DID). Dissociation Made Simple breaks it all down accessibly and
comprehensively, with empowerment and support--and without stigma,
judgment, or shame.
