More about me

Years in Practice: 19 State: Massachusetts

I am licensed in Rhode Island with almost 20 years in the field. My experience includes helping clients manage stress/anxiety; overcome depression; process trauma; and explore LGBT-related issues. I also teach anger management skills. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

I would return to her in the future if I need more help organizing my feelings, she helped me map the connections to positives and negatives I didn't have the strength to make anymore.

Overall

This is my third therapist with Better Help. I feel like Dawn understands my issues and is easy to talk to. Plus she responds back without making me feel bad for not having time to do a video session like one of the past people I had. She's understanding, supportive and honestly just a nice person to talk to.

Overall

Dawn is absolutely amazing I highly recommend her! The transition from my previous therapist who retired to her services has been amazing and being a lgbtqia therapist is crucial as well! She checks off all my boxes and then some! The connection you get with her on the first meet is welcoming.
