Hi, I’m Dr. Dawson. How can I help you?

I look forward to meeting you and helping you to clarify the “new normal” in your life. With psychological counselling, you can turn losses into gains. You can get a clearer picture of the patterns which get you stuck.

• Do you want to get out more and connect with people?

Treatment Approaches

Dr. Dawson devotes himself to providing a caring approach centred around YOU. Whether you have suffered trauma, loss, or trouble in your relationships, Dr. Dawson gets it. His two decades of psychological counselling experience combined with having lived through these issues in his own life help him to understand what you’re going through.

In your first appointment, Dr. Dawson will discuss your responses with you and will ask you some clarifying questions that will yield a mutual understanding of your treatment goals. Based on these goals, you will have the opportunity to discuss how long a course of psychotherapy might take and what the healing activities could be during your future sessions.

Dr. Dawson offers cognitive-behaviour therapy (CBT), narrative and family systems approaches, emotion-focused therapy, and approaches to treating trauma such as EMDR and mindfulness. At Dawson Psychological Services, your psychological health matters.

To support you in making the psychological changes you want, here are some resources that can help you move towards changing your life.

Not only that, you can freely use guidance to making the changes you want in your life in Dawson Psychological Services' companion website.
