Approved for 3 EMDRIA Credits

Somatoform dissociation is characterized by multiple somatic symptoms and troubling presentations that initially resemble physical illnesses, however, by definition, no physical explanation for the symptoms can be found. Clients with somatoform dissociation are often given multiple diagnoses and receive trials of multiple ineffective treatments. These symptoms are often intrusions of the sensory elements of unresolved traumatizing events, including childhood physical and sexual abuse, neglect, and attachment failures. With many dissociative clients we can establish contact with dissociative parts easily and communicate with them, but parts can be more difficult to identify in some somatoform dissociation cases, therefore an approach other than the usual techniques for working with dissociated parts is required.
