Her empathetic, non-judgmental approach fosters a safe space for military members, veterans, women, and men, allowing each individual to feel seen, heard, and supported throughout the therapeutic process. Dawn also integrates parenting skills and couples/marital counseling into her practice, offering comprehensive care for families seeking to improve communication and strengthen relationships. Outside of her professional life, Dawn enjoys spending her free time hiking and bowling.
