Dawn has a passion for working with people and families who are facing the life-changing circumstances of trauma, depression, anxiety, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, Mood Disorders, Chronic Illness, Lyme Disease, Addiction, Marital Conflicts, Parent-Teen relationships and the real day-to-day life concerns of dealing with a diagnosed mental illness or traumatic life event.
Dawn has a unique approach to therapy and looks at the client as MORE than their diagnosis. Dawn especially has compassion for the clients and parents who are concerned about over-medication. Dawn believes that medication should be a last resort of treatment not the first step towards a life of wholeness and wellness.
Dawn has worked with psychiatrists who have been willing to wean their patients of psychotropic medications in order to pursue more natural alternatives to alleviate the symptoms. Dawn has worked with clients who have faced life-threatening cases of medication toxicity who have been in ICU and then unable to continue treatment with psychotropic medications. She has seen the turmoil families have endured trying to get help for their loved ones. Working as a social worker before becoming a licensed counselor, Dawn is a well-trained advocate for her clients and she partners with doctors who are willing to seek alternative means of treatment if the patient feels it is necessary.
