Powerful tools to help your system of parts safely navigate life's challenges, safely express themselves, and thrive.

Often the result of a deeply traumatic experience, dissociative identity disorder (DID) affects millions of people, yet is commonly misunderstood. Written by a psychologist who has learned to thrive with DID herself, this unique book provides evidence-based methods to help connect, communicate, care for, and cooperate with the system of parts, and provides the emotional regulation skills, validation, and security needed to navigate life successfully.

In this essential toolbox, psychologist Adrian Fletcher draws on proven-effective treatments such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)—as well as her own lived experience—to help people with DID:

Just as there is no "one part" that defines people with DID, there is no one-size-fits-all treatment to help the system of parts thrive. That's why this book is designed to be a "toolbox," that the parts can draw from when needed to express themselves, calm themselves, and heal themselves.
