Walter Dunn, LCSW, MSW

Psychotherapist
331 N Washington Ave, Scranton, PA
Many of my clients have come to me after being diagnosed fully believing that their lives were over. Mental health issues do not define who you are as a person. They are just a small part of why we react in particular situations, in specific ways. I have a passion to help my clients and their families to discover not only how to overcome their mental health issues, but to thrive. I offer an eclectic approach to treatment that is tailored to each client's specific needs. I am an expert in helping those who have anxiety, depression and mood disorders to find stability in a life that seems hopeless. Finally, I am highly skilled in helping those with substance use disorders to find lives free from the torment of their disorders. I know what it is to suffer with mental health issues. In 2005, my wife succumbed to her mental health issues leaving me a widower. This resulted in starting my own journey toward recovery. Through therapy, I learned how to overcome my own suffering and my passion is to help you to overcome yours.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I use a client centered approach that requires the client to work collaboratively on what they want to work on. I use and eclectic approach to help develop skills that will assist my clients to never need a therapist again. Essentially, it is my job to put myself out of business.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

A typical session will include a discussion of what happened throughout the week, what assignments/coping skills the client working on and the results, a review of the progress made, and a discussion on what to expect in our next session.
