Dawn Warren, M.A., LPC

My approach is founded in person-centered therapy and focused on the relational. I believe real change happens through the relationship itself, through being genuinely seen and understood, not just through technique. From there, I work integratively and experientially, drawing on parts work (including training in Internal Family Systems), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), somatic approaches, and mindfulness. I don't believe one tool fits every person or moment, so I stay flexible and use what actually fits you rather than running everyone through the same process. Many of the people I work with are already deeply self-aware; they journal, reflect, read, and understand their patterns clearly. What they haven't found yet is a way to actually shift them. That's the work I specialize in: helping you build a real relationship with the part of you still holding onto an old pattern, so it can discover it has other options.

I work with neurodivergent, LGBTQ+, and ethically non-monogamous (ENM) adults in Texas who are seeking grounded, affirming care.
