15 June 2026 New Psychotherapist Issue 92
This issue looks at how the psychotherapy community can respond to an increasingly polarised social landscape, with a focus on equality, diversity and inclusion across marginalised communities.
It explores how therapists can work ethically and effectively with difference, from navigating issues of race, faith and gender identity to understanding how clients form their sense of self and body image.
This edition features insights from UKCP's EDI-BIIDE Committee alongside personal reflections from members writing about topics including the role of faith in therapy and working with transgender clients.

When my therapist, Dr. Dan Siegel, diagnosed me in 1991 with multiple personality disorder (MPD) - today called dissociative identity disorder (DID) - my first reaction was relief: Finally!
For many clinicians, Dissociative Identity Disorder is still misunderstood—often portrayed as a punchline, a plot twist, or a Hollywood stereotype.
But therapists who work closely with dissociation know something very different: the distinct parts clients bring into therapy are not “pathology” to erase. They’re a brilliant adaptation to overwhelming trauma. As Sally Maslansky and Dan Siegel reminds us, these parts hold important information and help clients survive when life feels unbearable.
Read more of Sally Maslansky's thoughts on what it really takes to help clients with DID heal: building safety and trust, working skillfully with dissociated parts, and supporting clients as they integrate their experiences on their own terms.

From treating symptoms to regulating the brain: https://www.facebook.com/psychologsmagazine/posts/pfbid036JjiJ7YASaA3iUGofcWzwVQEbHuAdyk2aA1aAbo6yoSNoxfFMdSSZ8mBUK5d5Ha5l
For years, mental health treatment focused on “feeling better.” But neuroscience shows that true healing goes deeper. Anxiety, depression, and trauma are not just thoughts; they are patterns rooted in how the brain and body respond to stress.
Modern psychotherapy is shifting toward neural regulation, helping the brain restore balance, build resilience, and rewire itself through neuroplasticity. It’s not about fixing you. It’s about helping your system feel safe enough to function the way it was meant to.
