Dawn Sweeney Kniep

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), Other
It is my goal to provide a warm and safe environment for those who invite me into their journey.
In such a fast paced world, I have observed that many individuals are "running on empty" and that this impacts their well-being and other areas of their lives. I approach therapy and health coaching with a combination of compassion and directness to help clients discover ways to replenish and heal so as to tap into new resources and their own already present strengths.
