Hi! I am a Clinical Social Worker licensed in Illinois and Virginia with over 15 years of experience working in the field of social services. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, sleep issues, Nightmares, Military/ Combat related issues, childhood abuse, Sexual Assault and ADHD. I also helped many people who experience feelings of emptiness, isolation and grief and loss.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Dawn is such a kind and empathetic therapist. She has always let me lead the way while simultaneously pushing me to consider ways in which what I'm doing might not be in my best interest. I've grown so much with her as a therapist and I strongly urge anyone reading this to consider working with her.
