Dawn Roberts

Dawn Roberts, LCSW, is a Florida-based therapist who helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and relationship struggles. She also supports those coping with trauma and abuse, addiction, grief, parenting strain, sleep problems, and career concerns. Dawn writes plainly and works to make therapy a practical step toward feeling better.

Dawn sees each person as the expert on their own life. She starts by listening and identifying strengths already present. Sessions focus on small, doable steps to reduce overwhelm and build confidence. Her style is collaborative and straightforward, with an emphasis on what clients want to change now.

Dawn uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new ways of responding. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Motivational Interviewing when motivation or emotion regulation are central concerns. Techniques are explained in plain language and practiced together in session.

With four years of professional experience as a licensed clinical social worker, Dawn combines practical tools with a calm, supportive presence. She encourages small experiments between sessions to test what works in real life. Progress is measured by changes clients notice in daily routines and relationships.

People who are ready to shift how they handle anger, manage stress, or navigate life changes can expect respectful, down-to-earth support. Dawn aims to make therapy useful and applicable to everyday life while honoring each person’s pace and priorities.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anger, anxiety, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments to shift behavior and mood. It often helps with depression, anxiety, and sleep problems. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and building a trusting relationship so clients feel understood and can access their own strengths.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dawn will collaborate with clients to decide which methods fit best for their goals and preferences. She frames therapy as a team effort, adjusting techniques as progress and needs evolve.

Because the profile does not list specific session formats, confirm available options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let a person use audio-only or video sessions depending on comfort and bandwidth. Talk with the therapist about what will work best for your routine and goals.
