01 / Ego-State TherapyEgo-State Therapy in Iowa City: Feel Whole Again
When you experience trauma, a very common response is to dissociate. If dissociation is a strong sensation for you that is blocking your ability to live a healthy and fulfilled life, Ego-State Therapy is here to help.
02 / IS THIS YOU?Feeling fragmented inside
One part of you wants to reach out, another says do not trust anyone. One side is confident and capable, another feels small and terrified. You have gaps in memory, strong reactions that feel like they come from someone else, and confusion about who you really are. Your mind created these parts to protect you. The trouble is they are still running the show.
03 / HOW IT WORKSFrom internal warfare to a coordinated, whole self
Identification
We notice the different parts and what each one protects you from.
Communication
We establish dialogue with the parts through imagery and conversation.
Understanding
We explore why each part formed and what it fears will happen if it lets go.
Integration
The parts stop fighting and start coordinating. You become a coherent whole.
04 / WHAT CHANGESThe internal arguments and noise begin to calm
Memory gaps become clearer. You develop a coherent, coordinated sense of self. You access your strengths without parts sabotaging you, and panic eases because the internal warfare stops.
05 / The logisticsWhat it costs and how long it takes
No insurance billing, which means no diagnosis is required on a claim form to get help, and no third party gets to decide how many sessions you deserve. A Good Faith Estimate can be provided under the No Surprises Act before we begin any clinical work, so always feel welcome to ask.
