Welcome! I’m Michael J. Dawson, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Clinical Supervisor (LCSWS) dedicated to helping adults and children navigate life's challenges. With over two decades of experience in behavioral healthcare, I offer a warm, collaborative, and evidence-based approach to mental wellness. My extensive clinical experience, which includes individual, group, and family therapy, allows me to tailor treatment to your unique needs. I provide a safe and non-judgmental space where you or your child can explore difficult emotions, build resilience, and develop practical strategies for a more fulfilling life.
My diverse background, from direct therapeutic care to high-level clinical program oversight, equips me with a profound understanding of mental health needs across the lifespan. I utilize proven methods to foster healing and sustainable growth. I am deeply committed to providing high-quality, ethical care that empowers you to reach your goals.
Whether you’re an adult seeking support for anxiety, life transitions, or recovery, or a family looking for guidance for your child or adolescent, I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward mental wellness.
