A review of the literature on psychogenic dissociative disorders in children is presented with the intent to highlight the unique characteristics and needs of this population. Three central issues are discussed: (a) the role of the counseling psychologist in the research, assessment (including screening instruments), and treatment of dissociatively disordered children; (b) etiology, clinical presentation, assessment, and treatment; and (c) suggestions for future study and research. It is concluded that counseling psychologists have much to offer in the emerging field of research and treatment of dissociative disorders in children
