I was employed as a therapist at a clinic for three years. I have been employed as a social worker for the public defender's office for the last 15 years.

Excellent therapist. Her comments help direct my thoughts into a direction that is truer to who I really am.

Dominique is kind, honest, and an incredibly intentional listener. Her transparency is unmatched and her truth is evident.

I love working with Dominique! She’s flexible but keeps me on track as far as addressing underlying concerns as well as things that come up throughout the week. She’s very easy to talk to and very relatable. She is excellent at helping me come to my own conclusions but also provide input and advice when needed. I feel like she truly understands each situation, and is sympathetic, but is also able to remain unbiased.
She has helped me immensely so far with tackling underlying concerns as well as new situations and how it all ties together. I’m getting a much better understanding of not only myself, but beginning to have an acceptance of myself. It’s a work in progress but it’s an amazing feeling.
