Continuing Education for Therapists
Handouts, videos, and continuing education presentations on treating severe anxiety, depersonalization/derealization, and dissociation.

My contributions: 2.5 CEs focused on dissociative disorders

Why don't we learn about dissociation?
In this 90-minute presentation, I take you through the history of dissociation from exorcisms in the 1500s, to the repressed memory movement of the 1990's, up through self-diagnosis via TikTok in the present day. The complex history of dissociation has made it seem rare and mysterious when in fact, it's everywhere. Learn why we doubt and dismiss dissociation, how to know it when you see it, and how to tell if you've got a faker in front of you.

Ooh, this looks like borderline personality disorder...
But, is it really? In just over an hour, I will run you through where the dissociative disorders and borderline personality disorder overlap and how to tell the two apart. We will discuss how complex post-traumatic stress disorder fits into the picture, and end with two case studies to pull it all together.
