Trauma & Dissociation Therapy in Texas

I’m Dawn Warren, Licensed Professional Counselor, providing in-person & telehealth therapy in Texas.

I work with adults healing from complex trauma who experience dissociation, anxiety, identity fragmentation, and emotional overwhelm. Using EMDR, parts work (IFS‑informed), mindfulness, and existential depth therapy, I offer a collaborative space to help you feel seen and empowered. If you feel misunderstood or stuck in patterns of disconnection, self-doubt, or masking, if you’re ready for support in making sense of your story—and reclaiming your sense of self—I’d be honored to walk with you.

Do you feel like you’re just surviving instead of truly living?
Maybe you dissociate, overthink, or people-please until you’re drained. Maybe emotions hit like a tidal wave—or you feel nothing at all. You might have been told you’re “too sensitive,” “too much,” or “not enough.” If any of that sounds familiar, you’re not broken—and you don’t have to figure it out alone.

I help adults repair old patterns created by developmental trauma, complex PTSD, and emotional overwhelm.

You didn’t choose the early environments and experiences that shaped how you learned to survive. If you grew up feeling unsafe, unseen, or like love had to be earned—your body and brain did what they had to do to get through it. But now? Those same survival skills are burning you out.

You might feel:

  • Like you’re “not really here” or often disconnected from your body

  • Stuck in a loop of people-pleasing, perfectionism, or self-doubt

  • Easily overwhelmed by emotions or quick to shut down

  • Exhausted, numb, or like your inner world is chaotic

  • Unsure who you are underneath the roles you’ve played to stay safe

What Therapy Looks Like With Me

I’m not here to rush you or force you to relive every painful memory. My approach blends trauma therapy, parts work (IFS-informed), EMDR, and existential depth therapy, all paced to meet your needs.

We’ll work together to:

  • Build a sense of safety in your body and mind

  • Understand and integrate the parts of you that learned to survive

  • Reduce dissociation and increase grounded presence

  • Heal shame and rebuild self-worth

You deserve more than just surviving.
