About Dawn
As a psychologist with decades of experience supporting individuals affected by abuse, Dawn provides a treatment plan that allows space to safely examine experiences of trauma and develop self-care, safety, and healing. Above all, she strives to create a therapeutic environment where clients feel heard, respected, and valued.
Dawn works with adult clients who are experiencing depression, anxiety, and trauma, often related to relationships and life transitions. She enjoys helping people understand the underlying reasons for what they are feeling and experiencing. Relationships are an important dynamic to examine when journeying to understand the sources of distress.
Past experiences can shape a person's view of self and others, sometimes interfering with well-being. Present-day dynamics are also explored to understand how clients are feeling in their everyday lives, whether at work, socially, or at home, and to gauge their level of comfort and connection.
The primary goal of therapy is to help clients feel emotionally and physically better. Together, Dawn and her clients explore whether change is needed in life patterns or whether concerns stem from external sources. Using clinically proven strategies, she works collaboratively to reduce the impact depression, anxiety, and trauma have on their lives.
