Therapy for dissociative disorders trial
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests a type of talk therapy called dissociation-focused cognitive behavior therapy for people with dissociative disorders (like feeling detached from yourself or having multiple identities). It aims to see if this therapy can help reduce symptoms.

This study looks at how common dissociative identity disorder (a condition where a person may have two or more distinct identities) is in adults who experienced trauma as children. Participants will undergo a psychological evaluation to help researchers understand the link between childhood trauma and dissociative symptoms.
This study looks at how dissociation (feeling detached or unreal) works in people who have had trauma. It tests different “mechanistic” approaches to better understand the brain and how to help, and whether participation can reduce these symptoms.
This trial studies a therapy called Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR) combined with group sessions for people with complex dissociative disorder, such as dissociative identity disorder (DID) or other specified dissociative disorder (OSDD). The goal is to help process trauma in a safe and supportive setting.
This study explores how dissociative identity disorder (DID) works. If you have DID and are seeing a therapist, you may help researchers learn more.
This trial studies a specific talk-therapy approach (psychodynamic psychotherapy) for people with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) who still have significant symptoms despite prior treatment. You may be able to join if your PTSD symptoms are in a moderate range and you can safely participate without urgent safety risks or certain other conditions.
This trial tests a therapy that uses body awareness and movement to help adults who experienced child maltreatment and have trauma-related symptoms. It may help you feel safer and more connected.
