What is Dissociative Identity Disorder?
Dissociative Identity Disorder is when people experience a fragmented sense of self, with more than one “part” or personality that takes control of a person’s identity at various times. DID is usually associated with people who experienced trauma during childhood.
Available Treatment Options for DID
Therapist interventions for people with DID include psychoeducation, where a professional explains what DID is, how it can affect people, and how it affects them. From there, interventions may focus on relieving the most distressing symptoms, such as processing emotions, integrating different personalities, or understanding their role in the person’s experience. Some Dissociative Identity Disorder therapists and clients may focus on the childhood trauma that led to the dissociation. This focus can help a person understand the root of their disorder and can sometimes bring them clarity and more well-being.

I view therapy as an invitation to bring awareness to the here and now. For many of us, we press forward, through, and over difficult feelings when they arise in our daily lives. Often they show up as unwanted thoughts or images. They not only fill us with dread, but we will go to great lengths to avoid them. On the other hand, what if moving toward our feelings actually reduces the influence t...
