Discover the Truth About One of the Most Misunderstood Mental Health Constellations
Most therapists don't know how to recognise Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID).
This misunderstood condition is often subtle and difficult to diagnose. It is NOT always the overt "multiple personalities" people imagine.
If you're treating a client for a personality disorder or psychosis who is stuck or resistant...
They may actually be living with DID.
If you don’t know how to identify the signs of DID, you could be providing the wrong treatment to your clients... Which puts them at risk of dropping out of therapy.
But the good news is that you can adapt many of the methods you already use to work with DID in impactful and effective ways!
Now, in this one-day workshop, Pam Stavropoulos, PhD, will:
- Dispel common recurrent myths surrounding DID
- Show you the nature and core features of DID
- Share essential knowledge of this misunderstood coping system
- Help you recognise the potential—and limits—of standard therapeutic modalities for treating DID
- Reveal helpful concepts, techniques, and key principles for working with DID
- And more!
Register for this live online event—or pre-order the recording—today to become the therapist who recognises DID and knows how to help clients find the relief they’re so desperately searching for.
(Please note that DID is a sophisticated and intricate mode of self-organisation, effective therapy for which requires clinical experience and skills beyond the scope of this training.)

Once you get your DID clients on the path to healing, you can layer in strategies to encourage post-traumatic growth (PTG).
PTG involves a cognitive shift, newfound appreciation of life, reconnection with personal strengths, and a focus on meaning that often involves helping others.
This bonus reveals key components of PTG, strategies that help assist PTG, and factors that help determine whether a client is open to a discussion about aspects of PTG.
