Remote sessions focused on skills and relationships
Dawn provides online care that draws on several documented approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Attachment-Based Therapy. In Cognitive Behavioral Therapy she helps clients notice and reframe unhelpful thinking patterns and experiment with new behaviors to address mood and anxiety concerns.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy is used to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills when strong feelings or conflict interfere with day-to-day life. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early and current relationship patterns shape expectations and connection, offering space to examine and shift those patterns over time.
These approaches are offered in collaboration with the client, combining practical skill teaching and relational exploration to match individual needs. Remote formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging so clients can select the mode that fits their circumstances.
