Dawn Addison
Question for you- Are you struggling with the decision of even considering the support of a psychiatric medication? Do you have questions and concerns that you want to discuss with someone knowledgeable and patient? Are you looking for a provider that encourages patient involvement and enjoys sharing ideas? If you answered yes to these questions, then it’s nice to meet you my name is Dawn, and I am thrilled to be your new provider.
My hope is that you will have a new perspective or point of view to carry with you as well as a plan or strategy to utilize until we meet again.
I have been supporting the behavioral health needs of people since 2016 through medication management. I have recently added hypnotherapy to my practice and I am incredibly excited to be able to offer this to you. I understand the process of considering support for any of your health needs can be overwhelming and frightening. However, please know I have experience in helping individuals to become the best version of themselves. I will do my best to make our interaction as comfortable as possible. We will develop a plan together and take things one step at a time. I look forward to meeting you and I am grateful for the opportunity to be part of your healing journey-
First session
In our first session together, I will share information with you regarding medication management. We will discuss the challenges you are facing to allow me to get a deeper understanding. From there we will develop a treatment plan. If you feel comfortable them medication will be prescribed. If you are interested in hypnosis in addition to medication then we can discuss that as well. The important thing for you to know is that you are in control and we will approach this at a pace that is comfortable for you.
Strengths
My biggest strength is the ability to listen and partner with the patient to develop a treatment plan that is comfortable.
Ideal clients
Anyone struggling with mental road blocks (low self esteem, worrying, lack of confidence) or unwanted behaviors (repetitive anxiety provoking thoughts, stress, worry, insomnia, lack of motivation) who want to tackle these things and see a change permanently.
Treatment methods
Hypnotherapy
I am a psychiatric nurse practitioner and medication management is my specialty. However, I utilize hypnotherapy for patients that are interested as it is an excellent tool for changing thought patterns and behaviors.
