About me
Hi! Welcome to BetterHelp! I want to thank you for viewing my profile and for making the courageous decision to talk to a professional for support during, what I can imagine, must be a difficult time in your life. Choosing the right therapist can seem like an overwhelming process when there are so many incredible and very qualified professionals on this site; however, making sure that you find the right fit for you and your situation can be one of the most important decisions at the beginning of your journey. So, to help make this decision a bit easier for you, I want to introduce myself and explain a little bit about what you can expect if you choose me to help you along the way!
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Clinical Professional Counselor, and Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor currently living in Las Vegas, Nevada with over 15 years of experience working as a therapist, counselor, life coach, caseworker, mentor, and intern supervisor. I have worked in many different settings throughout the course of my education and career, from inpatient behavioral health settings to forensics settings with court-ordered clients, long-term care facilities, private practice, and more. During this time, I have had the privilege of helping a variety of people identify core issues, develop healthy coping skills, and heal from deep wounds they once never believed possible.
Something I like my clients to know is that you are in the driver’s seat! This is your life and your treatment. You know yourself better than anyone else. You know what has been helpful in the past and what has been unhelpful. We will spend time getting to know you. We can then build upon that knowledge to develop a personally tailored treatment plan to address the issues that you determine to be a priority in your life.
I plan on assisting you with compassion, empathy, and directness to help you meet your personal goals. I am a very client-centered therapist, so if you would like me to apply a specific treatment method or technique, please let me know, otherwise, I tend to use an eclectic mix. I typically apply a great deal of CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) throughout our time together, which can be very helpful if we notice that some underlying sources of your identified issues may stem from thinking errors. I also have experience with DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), including emotional regulation skills, communication techniques, grounding skills, and mindfulness which can be very helpful in improving interpersonal relationships and emotional regulation.
Ultimately, what you can expect from working with me is a safe, compassionate, and supportive space for you to work through whatever you want help with.
I’m really looking forward to meeting you!

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dawn Marie Hill. We don’t pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Dawn was a wonderful therapist. When working with her I felt heard, seen, and respected. I made a lot of progress and she helped me through a tough time.
Dawn, has been the bestest ever!!! they are so down to earth, making them human just like me and that counts so much these days for visiting about all the things that bug us out as humans. If you feel like you talking to a robot you probably are. Dawn has been spot ON with their engaging and for identifying my stuff in such a way that its not scary to endeavor to grow beyond it, Thank you so much BetterHelp for hosting them, and Thank you Dawn, for everything!!
Dawn has really been able to show me great insight into the areas of my life that have been stumbling blocks for too long. She has been an ambassador to my success in living with ADHD and depression. I am grateful for vast knowledge and her overwhelming desire to help people in their struggles throughout their lives.
dawn is the most understanding and kind person ever! she actively listens and gives the space for me to feel open and accepted. i feel supported and safe when talking to her!
Dawn Marie Hill is the best therapist I have ever had. She has helped me process so much deep trauma (from an emotionally abusive relationship to childhood and religious trauma). I’m incredibly lucky to have worked with it her. I’ve felt safe and understood. I’ve healed and grown so much in the last year with her help and guidance.
Dawn has helped me so incredibly much. We’ve been working together since the end of May. She’s listened to me but also challenged me and helped me understand myself so much better. She’s honest and impartial, but very real and not ever ever ever condescending with therapist-speak.
I think it’s kismet that she was selected for my counselor on BetterHelp. Because I couldn’t have imagined this journey with anyone else.
Dawn’s ability to ask me the right questions and help me sort out my concerns about my own life has been life changing. I appreciate her positivity and I know she’s always available if I need someone to talk to. She has a lot of insight into why we do the things we do and I’m thankful I found her.
Dawn is down to earth and easy to connect with during session. She really cares!
She’s a wonderful person who’s helped me a lot so far and I’m excited to keep working with her!
Awesome so far!
Dawn has been amazing so far and I’m so glad I have been matched with her. She is very knowledgeable, helpful and straightforward. She tells me what I need to hear.
Dawn is the BEST, she has truly opened my eyes and provides me with tools to truly understand myself better
Dawn is very nice and understanding love her thx u again
Dawn has been welcoming since our first texts and calls. She really advocates for me in all my concerns and is so understanding. We talk throughout the week over text so when it comes to our phone calls we can get right to my main concerns. So glad I was matched with her!
