“Dawn is kind, patient, and very understanding. I am going through a lot right now, and she always listens very carefully to what I am saying and always comes up with a different way to think about my situation to transform it into something a little bit more manageable. I always feel better after our sessions. I looked a long time to find the right therapist, and Dawn was definitely worth the wait.”

Getting to know Dawn Meenan
Hi there, I'm Dawn!
Taking the first steps toward therapy can often feel difficult. It can also be one of the most rewarding experiences. It is my privilege to be a part of your journey. I specialize in working with individuals moving through life transitions, anxiety, depression, and trauma. I believe in a client-centered, collaborative approach where each session is tailored to your unique needs and goals. I am here to provide a safe space where you can feel free to be and explore yourself. I look forward to supporting you along your life's path.
My approach
I use an individualized and eclectic approach, as no one strategy fits every person's unique needs and goals. Your needs and goals are always the primary focus. We will work together to develop strategies that feel supportive and effective for you, providing you with the tools and confidence to face all that arises in your life. These may include breathwork, mindfulness, meditation, visualization, somatics, cognitive reprocessing and movement.
My focus
Are you experiencing life transitions or exploring your personal goals? Have you been experiencing anxious or self-defeating thoughts, self-doubt? Are you working through trauma or difficult life experiences? Would you like to build coping skills, feel a greater sense of confidence and empowerment? Together we can create a plan that supports and promotes your unique needs and goals.
My communication style
I believe therapy is a safe space for you to feel free to express yourself. I believe in open, clear communication; a supportive, non-judgmental environment; active and empathic listening. I provide a calming environment for you to explore your experiences and the path forward.
My journey to mental healthcare
My journey began with a desire to help others connect to their inherent strength and resilience in the face of the challenges in their lives.
