I am a licensed clinical social worker. My passion is working alongside those who are invested in becoming the best version of themselves, while creating opportunities for insight and growth.

The approach to learning how to manage struggles of our life experience can interrupt mental clarity, physical fitness, and interpersonal work. I can help you or a loved one bridge the connection of mind, body, and soul in an approach to healing and recovery.

Immediately she was clear with the importance of my comfortability. She is open and honest about the things she could do for me and she has been more than willing to work with me and all my rescheduling. I know things and myself will get better trusting in and moving forward with Dawn. Thank you!:)

My experience with Dawn so far has proven to be extremely valuable and helpful. She is very clearly devoted to the work she does, and all her small efforts, check-ins, and empathy help me in trusting how genuine of a person she is as well as a very effective therapist.
