VERIFIED PATIENT TESTIMONIAL

Hi there, I'm Dawn!

I provide individual and family therapy for adults and adolescents. When you begin therapy, you can expect a warm, compassionate, empathetic, and safe environment centered on your specific needs and goals. I look forward to meeting you, developing a therapeutic relationship, and working together toward your future.

My focus

I work with clients feeling overwhelmed by multiple stressors, struggling with self-care, experiencing low motivation or energy, weighed down by anxious thoughts, navigating loneliness, life transitions, difficult decisions, or finding it hard to make friends. Together we'll explore strategies and set achievable goals.

My approach

CBT/DBT, Mindfulness-based therapy, Solution-Focused Brief therapy, Person-Centered therapy, Positive Psychology, Compassion-Focused therapy, Family Systems therapy, Interpersonal Psychotherapy, Marriage and Family therapy, Reality therapy, Grief/Loss therapy, Trauma-focused therapy.
