Dawn Warren, M.A, LPC, EDMR trained
Texas Trauma Therapist
for Adults with Dissociation & Childhood Trauma
Life feels overwhelming when you are an adult who grew up with childhood trauma. Your emotions shut down or explode and different parts of you pull you in conflicting directions. You feel exhausted and like you can’t do enough, no matter how hard you try.
I specialize in helping adults with childhood trauma and dissociation. While my work is neuroscience informed, it is most importantly relationship focused. Whether you feel fragmented, stuck, or exhausted from carrying so much, I want to help you find more ease and connection.
Clients often come to me when they:
Struggle with anxiety that never fully goes away
Feel shut down, numb, or detached from themselves
Collapse with shame or guilt after outbursts or overwhelm
Battle perfectionism, self-doubt, or people-pleasing
Notice different “parts” of themselves taking over at different times
Live with the ongoing effects of trauma or dissociation
Find that traditional “talk therapy” is no longer helpful
If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not broken. You have amazing survival strategies that you learned in childhood to keep you safe. I want to help you create new possibilities and ways of being that feel less exhausting and more authentic to who you are.
My Approach
I am an integrative therapist. That means that I combine different evidence based modalities to help you shift old patterns, release what’s been stuck, and feel more connected to yourself.
Why Work With Me
As a Austin based trauma therapist, I work with adults carrying the weight of childhood trauma in ways that show up as anxiety, CPTSD, and dissociation (including DID/OSDD). My approach is warm, grounded, and deeply respectful of the courage it takes to show up for this work.
I welcome clients across Texas via telehealth and in person in Austin. My practice is affirming for neurodivergent, LGBTQ+, and ethically non-monogamous clients.
