What are the treatment options for dissociative disorders?

Treatment options for dissociative disorders include psychotherapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and trauma-focused therapy.

Therapies aim to integrate dissociated identities or memories and address the underlying trauma.

Medications may be prescribed to manage symptoms like depression or anxiety that accompany dissociative disorders.

Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can help process traumatic memories and reduce dissociation.

Support groups and specialized therapy programs provide additional resources for managing dissociative symptoms.
