I believe the therapeutic relationship is the key to unlocking the door, no matter what issues lie behind that door. Without a strong foundation of trust, respect, and communication--the 3 pillars upon which any relationship is built--progress cannot be made. This is where we begin. My clients view me as empathic, empowering, and trustworthy--ideals I foster through open communication. I have a unique ability to meet people where they are so that I am able to guide them on their journey toward wellness. My goal is to help you move through your problems toward effective solutions.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Ethel "Dawn" Capone. 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.
I felt comfortable talking to her about almost anything within the first session or two. I can't remember for certain, but either session 1 or 2, we were discussing my involvement in the local kink community, my poly relationship situations, and even certain specifics about activities. I never felt judgement or anything other than an enthusiastic "Yes! Let's talk about that!" with stuff that's so sensitive and personal. I honestly didn't expect to feel this comfortable with a therapist at ALL, much less in a couple of sessions.

Dawn gives me the space I need to express myself freely. I can tell her anything and she holds what I say with care and compassion - no judgement.

Dawn is kind and caring. She is so down to earth. She makes it easy to share my thoughts and feelings. I look forward to our future sessions.
