Dissociation can add layers of complexity to a case, and what I hope to impart through consultation is a deeper understanding of dissociative experiences and the protective role they may serve. By approaching these responses with clinical curiosity rather than simply viewing them as symptoms to resolve, we can better understand the person behind the presentation and consider what they may need to feel safe, supported, and understood.

I strive to create a consultation space that feels supportive, thoughtful, and collaborative. Consultation can feel intimidating, especially when clinicians are carrying difficult cases or questioning whether they are “doing it right.” My goal is not perfection, but growth. I want therapists to feel safe bringing uncertainty, curiosity, and questions into the room so that consultation becomes a space for learning rather than performance.

As understanding and clinical confidence grow, my hope is that you feel better equipped to support your clients in reconnecting with their emotions, experiences, relationships, and sense of self. I believe in meeting each client where they are and staying attuned to their unique capacities and pace, while helping them move toward greater connection.
