Bright natural dining room nook with vases plates and fruits on the table.

Course Description

Have you ever day-dreamed? Experienced road hypnosis? Lost track of time? Then you have joined the rest of humanity by dissociating ever so slightly! This workshop explores the spectrum of dissociation from the common experience of day-dreaming, to flashbacks or lapses of memory to the fragmentation of the personality. Sharing from her own healing journey and experience as a therapist, Pam demystifies the mysterious, with the hopes that you will recognize and respond to dissociative states in your clients in an informed, trauma focused manner. Exploration of the DSM 5 diagnosis of dissociative disorders is included.
