Dawn Orlando, M.A. MFT Associate #144795 (She/Her)
Life is a Collaboration. Loss, life changes, trauma, and social constraints can affect us in unexpected and unsettling ways. Navigating life’s challenges requires a safe, compassionate space where issues can be faced head-on with empathy as a guide. That’s why I’m here, because you don’t have to do it all alone.
I am a Marriage and Family Therapist Associate who works with people facing neurodivergence, gender affirmation, and anxiety. My passion to help others as they feel and become their most authentic selves is what drives me, whether that means forging a new life path, adjusting to current circumstances, or revisiting and processing old wounds. Utilizing integrated techniques, we will create a unique plan according to your individualized needs. We will work together to create healing, understanding, and empowerment to live a life congruent with your values, goals, and identity.
I am currently holding telehealth and limited in-person sessions. I look forward to meeting you and working together on your journey!
