Understanding Dissociation and Trauma with Ayan Mukherjee
“So it's like how can I give them something that helps them, that uses this concept, that helps them, even though we are not doing so much of that in our session?”
Ever wondered why some trauma therapies work for some people but not others? In this episode of The Good Mood Podcast, Dr. Talia Marcheggiani, ND, sits down with psychotherapist Ayan Mukherjee to unpack the complexities of dissociation, trauma, and Polyvagal Theory. Ayan returns to the podcast to share his deep dive into why certain clients don't respond to EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and how Polyvagal Theory offers a new lens for understanding these cases.

Ayan also provides practical advice on choosing a therapist who understands trauma and dissociation and shares DIY solutions, including recommended books and resources.
