The Stranger in the Mirror shatters the myths about disassociation - a debilitating psychological state involving feelings of disconnection that is also an essential response to trauma. Though disassociation affects more than 30 million people globally, it is an elusive epidemic that often goes undetected.

Filled with fascinating and moving case histories of people with multiple personality, this book invites you inside the closed doors of the therapist's office, providing enlightening insights into how all of us respond to trauma and overcome it.
