      <image:title>Treatments/Therapies - Psychological Therapy</image:title>
      <image:caption>Psychological therapies are sometimes referred to as 'talking therapies'. They involve exploring psychological difficulties that are getting in the way of how we would like to feel. Psychological therapy is a collaborative space to explore your difficulties in a safe and confidential setting.  I  aim to help you better understand your feelings in the context of your past experiences. Therapy provides a supportive, non-judgemental environment where you might feel more able to talk openly about your experiences. You  and I will work together to make changes that you want to achieve to feel a greater sense of happiness, empowerment, or perhaps to feel less affected by particular experiences. Therapy may be mainly concerned with what is happening in your day-to-day life or about understanding the connections between the past and the present.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Treatments/Therapies - EMDR</image:title>
      <image:caption>EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) is a psychotherapy that enables people to heal from symptoms and emotional distress that are a result of disturbing life experiences. EMDR therapy shows that the mind can in fact heal from psychological trauma much as the body recovers from physical trauma. What happens in an EMDR session: Review History Identify Issues Develop Treatment Plan Create a Safe Place Develop Self-Soothing techniques Connect with Inner Resources Identify Disturbing Events &amp; Triggers Identify Associated Emotions &amp; Body Sensations Create a Positive Belief Statement Bilateral Stimulation React to New Insights &amp; Associations Continue Until Disturbing  Emotions are Reduced</image:caption>

      <image:title>Treatments/Therapies - Phase-oriented treatment approach for DID DDNOS</image:title>
      <image:caption>1. Stabilization: The first stage of treatment for DID is stabilization. This involves helping the patient to become more aware of their dissociated states, and to learn how to manage their symptoms. This may include developing coping skills, learning relaxation techniques, and developing a sense of safety and trust in the therapeutic relationship. 2. Integration: The second stage of treatment for DID is integration. This involves helping the patient to integrate their dissociated parts into a cohesive whole. This may include exploring the history of the dissociated parts, understanding the purpose of the dissociation, and learning how to communicate between the parts. 3. Reintegration: The third stage of treatment for DID is reintegration. This involves helping the patient to reintegrate into their life and to develop a sense of identity and purpose. This may include exploring relationships, developing new skills, and learning how to manage stress.</image:caption>
