Dawn Johnson Harvey, LMHC & Certified EMDR Therapist
I work with clients who feel stuck and overwhelmed by negative experiences (traumas). Trauma often manifests as physical symptoms you don't understand or emotions that shut you down when you least expect it. Maybe you feel numb or can't seem to stop feeling too much. Difficulty with memory and attention are often side affects of a person trying to mange life under great amounts of stress. Feelings of overwhelmed, anxiety, depression, and irritability, anger and even physical pain are our mind's way of saying something is wrong.
I specialize in evidence-based EMDR trauma therapy. People often come to me when nothing else has worked. I guide people by helping them shift focus to find helpful narratives to live in. Sessions involve my listening, teaching skills, and client reflection to guide reprocessing. I enjoy working with a variety of people from varied backgrounds.
