About Dawn
Dawn Rochelle is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, relationship problems, and life transitions. She focuses on practical steps someone can use right away, while also addressing deeper issues that get in the way of day-to-day functioning. Dawn uses a coaching style that emphasizes what already works in a person’s life and builds from there.
With 18 years of clinical experience, Dawn brings steady guidance for people dealing with grief, depression, compassion fatigue, and addiction concerns.
Background and approach
She also supports those navigating parenting challenges, intimacy questions, career shifts, and ADHD-related struggles. Her work attends to attachment, abandonment, and family-of-origin patterns when these are relevant. Dawn blends client-centered work with concrete tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness.
She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) as one of the methods to address trauma and distressing memories. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques help people move from insight to action. Sessions emphasize clear goals, skill-building, and step-by-step problem solving.
She often helps clients spot negative messages or beliefs that limit them and then replaces those patterns with practical strategies. This approach is aimed at improving daily functioning while working toward longer-term change. Dawn works with executives, entrepreneurs, first responders, and people from varied professional backgrounds.
She also supports LGBT clients and those coping with fertility, aging, or caregiver stress. Her practice centers on helping people find more ease and meaning in their lives.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s strengths and priorities and helps shape sessions around what the client wants to change. It is useful for people who want a collaborative, respectful space to set their own goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, uses clear, practical exercises to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It often helps with anxiety, depression, stress, and problems that interfere with daily routines.
EMDR is used to address disturbing memories and the ways those memories affect current life. When appropriate, it is offered alongside other tools to reduce the hold of past events on present functioning.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust the plan as needed. That way work stays focused on what the client wants and what feels manageable.
Online sessions offer flexibility across formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is good for fuller conversations and body language. Phone works well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging allow brief check-ins, written reflections, and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, caregiving, and travel.
