There is not a consensus as to any particular evidence-based practice to use in thetreatment of DID. Consequently, once a diagnosis is made, many questions arise as towhich treatment modalities to employ. To fill the void, the presenter willpropose threefoundational pillars of treatment as best practices. Myths and unrealistic fears about DIDpermeate not only the dominant culture but also the medical model and the culture ofpsychotherapy. Consequently, to supplement and make those best treatment practices themost effective, the presenter proposes that therapists examine their own values, beliefs andprejudices, and ten foundational principles will be recommended by the presenter to serveas aspirations

1) Participants will be able to describe and understand the utility of the three pillars of DID treatment proposed by the presenter: resourcing,getting to know the alters, and the 3 Cs:communication, cooperation, and co-consciousness.2

2) Participants will, through self-reflection, consider ways to consciously adopt the tenaspirations proposed by the presenter, in their work with dissociative clients.

3) Participants will be able to design and employ relevant treatment interventions, throughthe utilization of skills learned in this program, to enhance treatment outcomes for theirrespective clients with DID.
