Walter,

I'll certainly insert Frank Putnam, MD, and "we consult on specific cases
and treatment options."

Regarding our origins, I feel a little uneasy mentioning that we are
actually a surviving remnant of the group Putnam started back in the 80's
-- maybe even earlier.  I didn't start attending till some time in the
early-mid 90's.  It would be true, of course, but I'm concerned that it
might be taken as some kind of trying to puff ourselves up.  Let me hear
from the rest of you on this.  Or we can just talk it over Friday.

We've settled on Matchbox, correct?

Dana,

Might add Putnam's full name, not just Putnam.

Might say how long or when we started.

Might add after "focuses on....trauma survivors." We consult on specific
cases and treatment options. (Or words to that effect.)

Sheila, and everybody --

OK, here's a combination of your suggestions, Sheila, and the wording I
came up with.  I think it's certainly good enough and I'm ready to send it
off to Danielle Foote at the GWSCSW.

Any last minute suggestions welcome.  I'm happy to be a contact person, or
I'll defer to anybody else who wants to do it.

        The Dissociative Disorders Study Group is a clinical consultation
group
which focuses on the application of various clinical approaches in the
current psychotherapy of trauma survivors.
We also believe that dissociation is a common feature of a great many
clinical presentations, that it is seriously under-recognized by the
general clinical community, and that there is great benefit in meeting
together with other professionals with a similar understanding or interest.

      We use as a reference Putnam's basic text on dissociative
disorders, but have broadened our focus to the understanding and treatment
of trauma sequelae  and the importance of shame as a core issue for so many
of our clients.  In addition to the explicitly dissociative individuals
identified by the DSM dissociative criteria: (amnesia, fugue, DID,
depersonalization, DDNOS)  we discuss dissociative phenomena occurring in
other diagnostic categories, such as eating disorders, rage episodes,
motivational difficulties, depression, and sexual and relationship problems.

      We're a small group of therapists, ranging from some with years of
practice with dissociative clients to some recognizing a need to know more
about this dimension of our field.  We meet the first Friday of the month
from 7:30 to 9:30 in Rockville, and 2-hour category II CEUs are awarded for
sessions attended in a year.

We would welcome inquiries from any interested professional.

For more information, contact Dana Willcox, LCSW-C, at
    or Caron Trout  at               .
      Caron-    Are you still willing to reply to inquiries?

Dana
