My approach

Hello, my name is Dawn Warren.  I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate, and I am passionate about helping adults who had difficult childhoods reclaim their sense of self and connection.  The majority of my practice focuses on anxiety, stress & burnout, PTSD/CPTSD, and dissociation.  My approach is integrative: founded in mindfulness, incorporating parts work and EMDR.  Whether you are feeling disconnected from yourself or overwhelmed by your emotions, I am here to support you on your journey. 

 Your difficulties may show up as anxiety, overwhelming emotions, or feeling burnt out. You are reaching out for help because you are tired and want new ways of coping. People often work with me because they want to learn how to: connect with their needs, communicate their needs, deal with triggers, navigate internal conflicts, and set boundaries.

I utilize an integrated approach so that we can find what tools work best for you.  Mindfulness is an approach that helps you become aware of the way your thoughts, emotions, and sensations are trying to communicate your needs. Parts work is a way to help untangle the confusion of your internal world and deal with the triggers that are making life difficult.  I am EMDR trained and can help you process and integrate traumatic experiences.  I am a Certified Trauma Professional and Certified in Trauma Model Therapy.

Therapy with me invites you to take off your shoes and get comfortable, drawing during sessions, being blunt, “cuss” words are welcome, sarcasm and dark humor, and how music matters.
