Hi, I’m Dr. Joseph Dunn. I help people heal from trauma, explore identity, & reconnect with their bodies and inner wisdom. I integrate talk therapy with body-based approaches to support nervous system regulation, especially for clients feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck. I specialize in working with queer, trans, and neurodivergent individuals navigating gender identity, ADHD, trauma, & life transitions. I strive to create a space where all parts of you are welcome—intellect, emotion, and embodiment alike.
My approach blends relational and depth-oriented psychotherapy with somatic awareness, mindfulness, and sensorimotor techniques. Whether you're seeking clarity, healing, or integration, we’ll work together to restore a sense of safety, connection, and choice in your experience.
I work at the intersection of mind, body, and identity. Drawing from psychodynamic, somatic, and mindfulness-based therapies, I help clients track body cues, regulate emotion, and access deeper insight. I offer a trauma-informed, queer-affirming, and kink/poly-aware space tailored to your unique needs and goals.
