Dissociation with Dr Jamie Marich

  • Summary

  • This week Monique interviews Dr. Jamie Marich (she/they) about dissociation. Jamie is a clinical trauma specialist, EMDR Consultant, expressive artist, recovery advocate, and author of many excellent books, including ‘Dissociation Made Simple’, and their latest book ‘You Lied to Me About God’ – a memoir of spiritual abuse and recovery. She is a queer woman in long-term recovery from an addictive disorder and lives with dissociative identities. Jamie unites all of these elements in their mission to redefine therapy.

    Monique and Jamie cover:

    1. What is dissociation and what is its purpose.
    2. What are the different forms of dissociation and why does Jamie tend to avoid using a ‘continuum of severity’ framework when thinking about dissociation.
    3. The history of ‘dissociation’ as a diagnostic concept.
    4. What is dissociative amnesia.
    5. Myths about dissociative conditions.
    6. Jamie’s lived experience of dissociative identities and the role that expressive and martial arts has played in their own journey and in their therapeutic work.
    7. How does dissociation fit under the neurodivergence umbrella, and what is the overlap of dissociative conditions with Autism and ADHD?
    8. Ways that people can reduce the stigma of dissociative conditions and support others experiencing dissociative conditions.
