Getting to know Dawn Blades

Hi there, I'm Dawn! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with a Master’s in Clinical Psychology and Marriage and Family Therapy from The Chicago School. I believe in a client-focused, supportive approach to therapy, emphasizing individual growth and development. My approach As a trauma-informed practitioner, I use psychodynamic and client-centered approaches, with training in several therapeutic interventions, including Supportive Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Family Systems. My focus I am Safe Zone trained and affirming of all gender identities and expressions. I have experience supporting the LGBTQ+ community and other communities with diverse relational norms and sexual preferences. I am also familiar with the Science-Fiction, Historical Recreation, and gaming communities, as well as those who practice alternative spiritual traditions. My communication style I work to create a safe, open, nonjudgmental environment where you can explore your feelings and overcome the negative patterns holding you back from creating healthy, nurturing relationships, healing past hurts, and rediscovering what brings you joy.
