10. Summary of project results:

Dissociative disorders are more likely to occur in females and adolescents than in adult males. In addition, factors considered as contributing to dissociative disorders include psychological factors (developmental psychopathology, receptiveness to hypnosis, trauma) and social factors (insecure attachment – ​​disordered attachment, adverse childhood experiences, traumatic loss events). This study aimed to observe the effectiveness of psychological intervention on a female college student with dissociative disorder. The study presented a 30-session psychological intervention process. Symptoms of dissociative disorder were assessed at different stages of the intervention and at the beginning and end of the intervention period. The results showed positive changes such as the elimination of dissociative episodes, improved self-esteem, and increased independence in the client.

11. Practical applications:

The research results have shown the effectiveness of combining psychoanalytic and cognitive-behavioral therapy techniques in the psychological treatment of dissociative disorders. This is concrete evidence that a combination of psychoanalytic and cognitive-behavioral therapy techniques can be applied in practice to individual psychological interventions for clients with dissociative disorders.

12. Future research directions:

Future research could focus on the following: (1) expanding the theoretical basis for appropriate and/or effective therapeutic models for dissociative disorders to support dissociative disorder planning and intervention. (2) further research could expand on the causes of dissociative disorders such as personality traits and family structure.
