Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID)

Understanding Dissociative Identity Disorder

Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) involves the presence of two or more distinct identity states or parts, often resulting from severe trauma or ongoing childhood neglect. Individuals may experience memory gaps, depersonalisation, or sudden changes in mood and behaviour that feel outside their control.

How Therapy Can Help

At Psychology Clinical Rooms, therapy for DID is trauma-informed, paced, and grounded in safety. Treatment may draw on Phase-Oriented Trauma Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Grounding Techniques to integrate experiences and improve daily functioning. Therapy focuses on building stability, internal communication, and self-compassion.

Healing begins with safety, understanding, and connection — within yourself and with trusted support.
