About me

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida with over 16 years of professional work experience. I have worked with both adults and teens dealing with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. I also have a good deal of experience in working with the mental health challenges that come along with a chronic or acute illness.

Everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and respect and everyone has their own unique story and journey. Together we can talk and develop a treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

Written on Sep 26, 2023 after therapy with Dawn for 5 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, eating disorders, self esteem, career difficulties, bipolar disorder, coping with life changes, and adhd

She is an amazing therapist. She was able to pinpoint early on exactly what I needed to work on and helped me work through it. She gave me the tools I need to keep pushing through. She is also very kind and always checked on my mental state throughout each video call as to not overwhelm me and walked me through breathing exercises and meditation. She is the best therapist I have found in a really long time because she genuinely wants to help.
