Hello, The last six years, I have dedicated myself to the field of Social Work. I learned that advocacy is vital. We should be empowered, protected and responsible for the change we would like to see in society. It is important to first learn how to advocate for ourselves and in order to do that, we must reflect on our experiences and see them as opportunities of growth rather than impediments.

Dr. Nancy Dawson

Therapist

Virtual • New York


I'm a licensed mental health counselor with a doctorate in psychology and 20 years of experience working with adults and seniors, including people navigating ADHD, trauma, grief, mood disorders, and major life transitions. My approach is faith-informed: I integrate a Christian worldview into my clinical work for clients who want that, and I offer a secular, evidence-based framework for those who don't. Either way, I take the whole person seriously — not just the symptom. I completed brain health training through the Amen Clinic, which has meaningfully shaped how I think about ADHD and cognitive health in older adults. I'm also a published author: my 2019 book came out of doctoral research on fear, dementia, and the aging mind.

I'm ready to help you get started on your journey!


I received my masters in social work from Adelphi University. I worked as a social work director for a number of years previously but I stopped because I really preferred more face to face time with my patients. I got so much more from my time counseling than being in a management position. Over my 22 years as a social worker, I've come across many people with diverse issues and truly have enjoyed all of my experiences as they helped form the person I am, the therapist I am. Much of my experience is working with anxiety, depression, bereavement, couples counseling, life transitions, stress management, cancer and chronic illness counseling, palliative care counseling, caregiver support and community resource and referral.


People always tell me that I'm a good listener. This is my greatest accomplishment and one I'm most proud of because as your therapist I want to HEAR you. I want to join you in your pain or difficulties and help you find your way through them. I may not have experienced what you have specifically gone through or are facing now, but I know how to find my way in to how you are feeling. Building a therapeutic rapport with you will be my first step. Trust needs to build and then most of my work is generally solution focused and cognitive-behavioral techniques. You will see that I am a caring, non-judgmental person. I would love the chance to help see you through your challenges. You've taken the first step!

Therapist

Virtual • New York


I strive to bring a warm, compassionate, and non-judgmental approach to therapy. I have been a social worker for 10 years, working with mothers of babies in the neonatal ICU for 5 years, and a mother for over 25 years. Moms go through a lot. Are you a woman seeking to become pregnant? Have you recently experienced a miscarriage or a loss? Are you a mother of young children? I have a strong connection with women in all stages of motherhood, whether you are aspiring to be a mother, find motherhood overwhelming and all-consuming, or have recently suffered a loss. No other loss is quite like the pain of miscarriage and infant loss. In therapy, you will be heard and seen. I'll give you the space to let it all out, and to process what you are going through.
