About Dawn
Dawn Reese is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Wisconsin with three years of practice. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, anger, grief, and the fallout of trauma and abuse.
She focuses on straightforward, practical work. Sessions are a place to talk through what leads to anger, resentment, and repeated conflicts. Dawn helps people identify patterns that make temper flare or keep resentment alive, and she supports steps to reduce harm and manage reactions.
Her approach is collaborative. She uses client-centered conversations to learn what a person values, and then combines that with tools from mindfulness and solution-focused work. That means you can expect both space to talk, and concrete ideas to try between sessions.
Dawn also draws on trauma-focused methods when painful events shape current reactions. That work is paced and aims to reduce the ways past experiences keep triggering intense feelings now. Motivational interviewing is available for clients working on change related to addiction, habits, or career shifts.
She accepts people from outside the United States. Sessions follow a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session so she can get a clear sense of goals and needs.
How her approaches adapt to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to you. Online sessions let a therapist follow your lead and help clarify goals and values. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing skills to lower reactivity and notice triggers. These practices translate well to remote sessions and can be practiced between meetings.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Dawn will discuss goals, current problems, and preferences to decide whether client-centered, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, solution-focused, or trauma-focused methods fit best. She collaborates with each person to set priorities and try options, adjusting as progress is tracked.
The biography does not name specific session formats, so confirm which online options are available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten check-ins, or use resources and exercises between meetings. It also allows continuing care for people who live outside Wisconsin or travel frequently. Ask about formats when you schedule the first session so logistics match your needs.
