Speaking, Trainings & Taking the Mic

With Frayde Yudkowsky, LSW, LMSW, CTP

Trauma Therapist. Polyfragmented System. Frum Woman. Fierce Advocate.

Real talk. Big heart. No fluff.

1. I speak from two places:
Professional expertise as a trauma therapist who specializes in complex trauma and DID.

2. Lived experience as a polyfragmented system and proud frum woman navigating healing, stigma, and survival in real time.


I don’t do dry lectures. I do raw, real, and unforgettable conversations that leave people thinking, feeling, and ready to show up better for themselves and others.

Who’s This For?

  • Podcasts + Panels + Livestreams
  • Colleges + Universities (Social Work, Psychology, Counseling)
  • Schools + Camps (especially frum!)
  • Agencies, Mental Health Teams, Support Staff
  • Community Orgs + Panels + Frum Nonprofits
  • TV+ Radio Segments 


Popular Topics (AKA the stuff people keep asking me to speak on)

What Even Is DID?

  • Debunking myths, TikTok nonsense, and movie madness
  • What therapists & educators actually need to know
  • Beyond IFS: why it’s not the answer (yup, I said it)


Living with DID as a Frum Woman

  • What it’s like navigating a polyfragmented system and a frum community
  • Shame,stigma, and showing up anyway
  • How toactually support someone with DID (hint: not with labels)


The Parts You Don’t See

  • Freeze responses in kids that look like "just stubborn"
  • How parts can hijack, protect, or hide
  • What switching might actually look like in school, camp, or life

Calling All Clinicians

  • What  they don’t teach you in grad school about complex trauma
  • How to  work with systems without trying to “fix” them
  • Language  that heals. And what to stop saying, like... yesterday.

What It’s Like When I Show Up

  •  Interactive   – Not just a talking head. I invite Q&A, share lived stories, and make      it human.
  • Customizable   – Frum crowd? Secular grad school? Teen counselors? I adjust.
  • Warm.   Real. A little funny. I talk about hard things in a way people can   actually hear.

Book Me For:

  • Guest spots on podcasts or livestreams
  • Trainings for mental health staff or interns
  • Panels in frum spaces or professional      associations
  • Camp or school inservices & orientations
  • College & university classroom lectures
  • DID awareness events, CEU workshops, and      conferences

Why I Do This

 Because people with DID deserve better.
Because people with mental illness deserve support, not silence.
Because if one teacher, one therapist, or one counselor gets it after hearing me speak—that could change everything for someone like me.
