About me: I specialize in women's issues, trauma, grief, relationships, anxiety, and life transitions. About you: You are intelligent, sensitive, and high-functioning. You appear to others as though you have it all together, but inside, something's not working. Perhaps this manifests physically, as insomnia or chronic tension. Sometimes it's more internal: anxiety or depression, indecision, heaviness, or an inability to move past a traumatic event. You seek answers to life's biggest questions, but sometimes have trouble hearing your own inner wisdom. You wish to feel more ease, more clarity, more connection, more meaning.

Areas of expertise: childhood abuse, grief, anxiety, depression, and how to manage an addicted love one. I also specialize in couples and family counseling. I see teens, clients with gender identity issues, clients who are bipolar or have a personality disorder. Feedback from clients: "I finally understand how to cope with the emotionally immature person in my life." "Dawn is honest with me about things I need to improve on." "My husband and I are now able to discuss money, sex and co-parenting without fighting." "Dawn helped me stop the pattern of generational abuse in my family." "I am enjoying my life again! Thank you."

Together, we find more space to breathe and grow through these challenges. I work with adults, adolescents, and diverse populations of all kinds. I bring my lived experiences of working with my own challenges to my practice of supporting others.
