How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Dawn draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change thoughts and behaviors that keep anger and anxiety active. CBT sessions often include practical exercises and short behavioral experiments to try between meetings.She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current reactions. That approach is useful for people who get easily triggered in close relationships or who want to change how they relate to loved ones.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Dawn will talk with the client about goals, try methods, and adjust based on which techniques feel effective. Clients and therapist decide together what to keep using and what to change.
