Dawn N Riggs
Psychologist, PhD

Most of my clients have reached a point at which their lives have become uncomfortable & maybe even untenable. They may be nervous about embarking on the therapeutic journey with a stranger. Often, this is their first experience with therapy. Or, perhaps, they have been in therapy on & off throughout their lives. Because this is new & anxiety-provoking, we move slowly at first. My clients do not want to be pushed into talking about trauma or uncomfortable life events until they are ready. I respect & honor that. Most people want to move at their own pace & will tell me what that means. As trust grows, we are able to begin healing.

Locating a therapist you find trustworthy and helpful can be a challenging task. Sometimes we do not know what we want out of therapy, what to expect, or if it’s even necessary. My hope is that I help you answer these questions and feel secure about the therapy process as quickly as possible. If we choose to work together, we will work together to build a plan I feel confident will resolve your concerns.

It can be intimidating to reach out to anyone and admit you need help, whether it's to a friend, family member, or total stranger. You may be thinking to yourself, "No one really cares," "My problems are too big for anyone to understand or help," or "I don't want to be a burden to anyone." You may also think your problems are too small or simple compared to the struggles of others around you, and don't want to "waste" others' time. Whatever your reasons for seeking help, it can be real challenging getting started, whether it's your first time talking to a therapist or not.

My journey to becoming a therapist initially began after several years of working in the medical field and seeing how much the mind and body were connected. I went on to practice massage therapy and reiki. During sessions, people would talk to me about their life and traumas. I was able to see firsthand how stress and trauma truly lived in the body.

Not only do I provide traditional counseling and therapy for individuals of all ages and families, but I also offer services to achieve optimal performance and wellness.
