This workshop is directed at exploring the link between trauma, dissociation and both dissociative and personality disorders. We will discuss how the brain is changed by trauma and how dissociative and personality disorders develop through attachment and attunement disruptions early in life. Although many of these disorders are seen as extremely difficult to treat, it is often simply that we are using methods that won’t work with this level of reactivity initially.
