More about Dawn
- 15 years' experience
- Female
- LMSW
As a licensed therapist in Michigan, I bring over 15 years of dedicated experience supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenging experiences, with specialized expertise in depression, anxiety, trauma recovery, and life transitions. Interventions include talk therapy, somatic work and mindfulness techniques to integrate mind/body healing.
I am deeply committed to creating a compassionate, affirming therapeutic space where individuals can explore their inner world and develop meaningful strategies for healing. My approach is particularly attuned to supporting individuals through unique emotional challenges, addressing issues like social anxiety, mood disorders, and personal growth.
My clinical focus emphasizes self-love, emotional resilience, and holistic well-being. I work collaboratively with clients to address difficult experiences such as guilt, shame, panic attacks, and seasonal emotional shifts. By providing a supportive, non-judgmental environment, I help individuals develop stronger coping mechanisms and rediscover their inherent strength.
I understand that seeking therapy takes courage, and I'm honored to walk alongside you as you pursue personal transformation and emotional wellness.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
