Getting to know Dawn Ferguson

Do you find yourself struggling with feelings of anxiety, depression, or substance use disorder issues? Are you burdened by traumatic memories and a sense of overwhelm? Maybe your life has taken an unexpected turn, leaving you feeling lost, confused, hurt, or even ashamed. Let's begin walking this journey toward balance, wellness, and renewal together. With a Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Capella University and extensive experience working with adults, adolescents, and families, I address symptoms of anxiety, depression, trauma, adjustment issues, grief, and addictions.

My strength-based approach is characterized by empathy, compassion, kindness, and acceptance. I understand that seeking therapy can be scary, but the true gift lies in the opportunity you give yourself to learn the skills necessary to overcome your challenges and struggles. You will leave with a renewed sense of resilience, hope, and courage. Let's begin working together on your journey of healing and positive change.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

Amazing therapist with a great energy.
So many great things have come out of me choosing Dawn as my therapist. I definitely feel more in control of my life than I have ever imagined. Dawn is caring & empathetic all while helping me see thing differently and how to take concepts & put them into action in my real life.
Dawn has easily been the most comforting and open-minded therapist I have had. She is very calm and listens, while teaching. Every session I learn something new about myself and how to cope with things. She does all of this, while maintaining a welcoming and calm space.
Dawn is hands down the best therapist. She has and still is helping me with personal growth and trauma response. I couldn't have asked for a better therapist. Very relatable. Very kind and genuine.
Had my first session and I’m already excited for my next session. Super comfortable talking with her she listens and gave me feedback.

Very professional and helpful
Ms. Dawn is clearly a highly experienced and skilled counselor/therapist who is comfortable with putting people at ease and assessing their mental states. I have not gone over actual counseling, just intake, and I appreciate that she did not push for more personal information than I was comfortable giving and in fact had simple forms pre-prepared so I could give her the information she needed to prep her plan of care without feeling pressured to give stressful details before reviewing grounding tactics etc. Really appreciate her! Planning to continue care.
