did some checking on this for you....spain psychiatrists/psychologists and therapists do treat dissociative disorders.. and a full range of other mental disorders too.

the difference is that they use the IDC (and on rare occasions the DSM 5) in the IDC DID (and other dissociative disorders ) is called a .....conversion disorder....... you can find a full list of what dissociative disorders spain treats in the IDC under the coding numbers F44 through F44.9.

my suggestion talk with your treatment provider they will tell you whether they have chosen to treat these conversion disorders and if not refer you to a treatment provider that does.
