Dissociative Identity Disorder – Fusion Through ‘As If’ Unexpressed emotions will never die. They are buried alive and will come forth later in uglier ways. ~ Signund Freud Dr. Earl W. Flora provides therapy in Williamsburg, VA, for all ages with a wide range of individual mental health issues, family, work, and related issues. His specialty is treating Dissociative Identity Disorder, and here he adds this interesting perspective to reintegration/fusion. Along with a full range of psychological issues, Dr. Flora utilizes a well-publicized but seldom used a single sentence to quickly assess & identify DID clients. In addition, he has developed an abbreviated technique for working with clients suffering from Dissociative Identity Disorder by avoiding the use of abreaction to bring the personas together, without forcing them to relive the negative effects of the event that caused their separation in the first place. It’s about time… time to recover. Only after spending 27 years developing and validating the technique has he published his book titled Then They Were One – Fusion Without Abreaction,  in which he describes his technique in great detail.  Additional Details Since you’re interested here do listen to the two ART – Accelerated Resolution Therapy – Interviews below as they bring together additional practice recommendations/applications.
