I created Supporting Multiplicity because I wish something like this had existed when I was trying to figure out how to survive extreme abuse and create a stable life as someone with Dissociative Identity Disorder. As someone with lived experience, I know how life-changing it can be to have a therapist who truly understands dissociation. This course is my way of bridging that gap — offering practical tools, real insight, and a trauma-informed, peer-grounded approach so that therapists can show up with clarity, confidence, and compassion for clients with DID and other dissociative experiences.
Since 2014, I’ve been creating accessible, compassionate resources for people navigating dissociation — including the Dear Little Ones book series, supportive tools for systems, and hundreds of pieces of psychoeducational writing. I’ve worked in peer support since 2018, and my focus has always been on honoring lived experience, reducing harm, and making healing feel possible for those who’ve often been misunderstood. This course brings all of that work together in one place, designed to support both professionals and survivors.
