About me

I have almost 25 years of experience working with children (ages 3+), teens/"tweens," families, and parents/co-parents .

My favorite humans are teenagers. Teens often feel they are unheard and misunderstood, judged and underestimated. This often leads to feelings of isolation, feeling lost or adrift, and alone. I’m here to prove that not everyone over the age of 30 sucks.

Particular areas of interest: LGBTQ+, Cancer Care, Trauma-aware, Mindfulness, Anxiety and Mood Disorders.

I believe the therapeutic relationship is the key to unlocking the door, no matter what issues lie behind that door. Without a strong foundation of trust, respect, and communication--the 3 pillars upon which any relationship is built--progress cannot be made. This is where we begin. My clients view me as empathic, empowering, and trustworthy--ideals I foster through open communication. I have a unique ability to meet people where they are so that I am able to guide them on their journey toward wellness. My goal is to help you move through your problems toward effective solutions.

Dawn helped me through a hard time with family and transitioning, after I hopped through 4 different therapists. I highly recommend her especially if you’re looking for some sweet ‘motherly love’ :)

Dawn is a 100% genuine person and working with her is like looking my subconscious in the mirror. Highly recommend :)

Amazing, lovely, kind and caring person! When I came to teen counseling I had already done 10+ years of therapy and I just wanted someone to talk to about the chaos of my life, Dawn is so understanding and patient and has gone above and beyond my expectations. When my life recently started to fall apart again she was there and I cannot thank or reccomened her enough!

She’s amazing, calm, a great listener and gives excellent techniques on how to get out of episodes or panic/anxiety attacks
