Dissociation & Parts Work in Denton, TX & Virtually Across Texas
Every part of your internal world is unique, distinct, and shaped with purpose—deserving of honor, care, and protection.
When Your Internal World Feels Fragmented, You Deserve a Safe Place to Land.
If you often feel disconnected from your body, lose track of time, experience internal voices or competing "parts," or feel like you are watching your life from behind a sheet of glass—your mind hasn't failed you. It has worked heroically to protect you.
Honoring Every Unique Part of You
When living with dissociation, it can feel like your internal world is made up of conflicting pieces. Some parts may carry heavy emotional pain, others may hold anger or vigilance, and others may simply step in to handle daily tasks when things become overwhelming.
Like pieces of sea glass smoothed by heavy seas, each part of your system is individual, unique, and invaluable.
How We Help You
Unpack Depersonalization & Derealization: Grounding your nervous system when the world around you feels unreal or distant.
Understand Structural Dissociation: Learning how past trauma caused your identity and emotional states to compartmentalize.
Navigate Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID): Cultivating internal communication, cooperation, and calm without shame or forced fusion.
Process High-Control & Religious Abuse Trauma: Disentangling internalized guilt and fear stored within vulnerable younger parts.
Before we ever dive into deep trauma processing, our first and most critical job is building internal safety.
Think of this phase as creating a series of internal safe harbors. Using a combination of Internal Family Systems (IFS), Ego State Therapy, and Emotional Transformation Therapy (ETT), we design internal "refuges" where your protective and vulnerable parts can rest without feeling overwhelmed by the present day.
When your parts know there is a safe, contained structure within your mind—and a steady therapist holding space alongside you—the chaotic internal noise begins to quiet.
My Specialized Modalities for Dissociation
Generic talk therapy often falls short when addressing severe dissociation because it speaks only to the analytical mind, ignoring where trauma lives in the nervous system.
My active, collaborative approach integrates evidence-based modalities designed specifically for complex parts work.
"Integration is not erasing who you are—it is assembling every vibrant, unique piece into a complete, beautiful mosaic."
Internal Family Systems (IFS) & Ego State Therapy: We treat every part of your system as a valuable team member. Instead of fighting your internal defenses, we empower you (the core Self) to become the gentle anchor your system has been waiting for.
Emotional Transformation Therapy (ETT®): Utilizing visual brain stimulation and color wavelengths to rapidly shift deep emotional distress stored within specific parts.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing): Carefully modified for dissociation to safely process traumatic memories without triggering overwhelming flooding or system shutdowns.
