Dr. Dawn M. Birk, Ph.D. d.b.a. A Peaceful Point, L.L.C. No matter where you are in your life, let me help you find your peaceful point. Life is hard sometimes and we all go through periods when we could use guidance, assistance in coping, a warm empathic listener and someone who can aid us in identifying and achieving our goals. I look for the strengths in every individual whether we meet solely for an evaluation or for short or long-term therapy. Together we look for ways to find peace in life.

We are born whole with all we need to live the life of our dreams.

Beginning with your first session, we will explore where you are, how you got here, and plan to achieve the life you want. You will leave with renewed hope and strength.
