HI! I am a licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Texas. I received my Master of Science from Grand Canyon University in 2015 and have been counseling as an LPC for the past three years.

I help individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, and past trauma by helping the clients navigate through their healing process by using tools and strategies to do so.

First session

In our first session, we'll introduce briefly, and then dive into your specific challenges. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

Strengths

Helping clients navigate through the therapeutic process empathetically has always been a strength for me.

Ideal clients

I love working with individuals who are eager to improve but often struggle or do not have the correct tools to navigate through the process of healing. I work with children and adults.

Treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Clients will learn how to identify patterns of unhealthy behaviors and use problem-solving skills to cope with difficult situations.

My first virtual session with Mrs. Dawnea was incredibly grounding and unexpectedly powerful. Even through a screen, she created a warm, welcoming space where I felt truly seen, heard, and supported. Her calm, intuitive presence made it easy to open up and be honest with myself. I left the session feeling lighter, more hopeful, and no longer alone. This already feels like the beginning of something deeply meaningful and healing. I’m so grateful to have found her.
