Sitting With Dissociation
Understanding Disconnection, Building Connection, and Finding More Choice
What if dissociation isn't something you have to fight your way out of?
Sometimes the more you try to force yourself to come back, the more overwhelmed, afraid, or disconnected you feel.
This course offers a different starting point.
What if we became curious about what your dissociation is doing—and learned to build more connection and choice around it?
What if dissociation isn't the problem you're supposed to solve?
What if it's about understanding why dissociation happens, becoming more familiar with your own experience, and discovering more ways to stay connected—with yourself, your environment, and others—when things become too much.

In this mini course, we will explore
dissociation as a protective response that makes sense in the context of what your nervous system has experienced.
You'll learn to recognize the quieter forms of dissociation, notice the edges of your own experience, and explore different ways of finding connection without assuming that going inward is always the answer.
We'll also explore what happens when we become afraid of dissociation itself—and how fighting the response can sometimes create even more urgency around it.
This isn't about romanticizing dissociation.
And it isn't about resigning yourself to it.
It's about developing enough understanding and relationship with your experience that you can begin to have more choice in how you respond.
Inside the course, you'll receive 8 videos that explore:
Understanding dissociation differently
What dissociation actually is, how it can show up, and why your nervous system may have learned to create distance when something felt like too much.
Getting to know your dissociation
You'll learn to notice your own “edges”—the subtle changes that may happen before you feel far away, foggy, numb, blank, or disconnected.
Curiosity instead of interpretation
You don't have to perfectly decode your nervous system. We'll practice noticing what's happening without immediately deciding why.
Finding connection in different ways
Connection doesn't always mean closing your eyes and feeling your body. Sometimes connection comes through vision, sound, movement, the environment, another person, or simply noticing what remains accessible.
Exploring dual awareness
What if one part of you can notice what's happening internally while another part remains connected to something here?
Practicing movement and choice
We'll explore how movement can create opportunities for connection, agency, orientation, and choice.
Understanding the role of relationship
Sometimes we learn to stay present because someone else first showed us what it feels like to be stayed with.

Begin TodayThis course is for you if...
You experience dissociation but don't always recognize it as dissociation.
You feel foggy, blank, numb, far away, tired, or like you're functioning without feeling entirely there.
You become afraid when you notice yourself beginning to disappear.
You've tried grounding techniques that sometimes help—and sometimes don't.
You tend to believe you need to “come back” as quickly as possible.
You want to understand your nervous system without constantly monitoring or analyzing yourself.
You want more ways to find connection when you're feeling distant.
Or maybe you're simply ready for a gentler relationship with an experience you've spent a long time trying to get rid of.
You don't have to learn how to force yourself to stay.
You can learn to notice.
To become curious.
To find connection.
To move toward and away.
To ask for support.
To recognize what you need.
And, over time, to have more choice.
Because healing isn't always about dissociating less.
Sometimes it's about becoming less afraid when dissociation happens—and discovering that you have more ways to stay in relationship with yourself when it does.
