Meet Your Provider
Hi, I’m Dawn.
I’ve spent over 10 years working in mental health across a variety of settings—including inpatient care, outpatient clinics, and in-home services with PACT teams. These experiences have shaped how I approach care today: seeing the full picture of each person and providing holistic care that supports the mind, body, and spirit—not just symptoms. My goal is to meet you where you are and help create a plan that feels realistic, supportive, and sustainable in your everyday life.
I work with individuals ages 6 through 70, supporting a wide range of needs including anxiety, mood disorders, ADHD, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), schizophrenia spectrum disorders, and life transitions. Whether you’re starting medication for the first time or looking to feel more balanced and like yourself again, we’ll work together to find what fits you best.
My approach is collaborative and grounded. You’ll be heard, included, and supported every step of the way. I focus on clear communication, thoughtful medication management, and care that feels practical—not overwhelming.
At Phoenix Psychiatry, you don’t have to have everything figured out before you begin.
You just have to show up. and be ready to rise.
