We all deserve to feel safe as we navigate the challenges of life.

My Story
Hello, I am Dawn R. Flores, LCSW, originally from Southern California, I have called Austin home for the last 20 years. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from St. Edward’s University and my Master of Social Work from Texas State University. Through my own journey I married my incredible wife, and raised two children in this beautiful city to face this life with kindness and understanding.
My Experience:
I have experience in providing therapy through many transitions in life, to both individuals and families. I have work with adolescences, adults, and those in later life. I have experience with a wide range of life’s challenges and diagnosis, including:
depression, anxiety, grief and loss, medical challenges, self-discovery, communication, goal planning, trauma, and many more. I also work closely with those in the LGBTQIA+ community, am sex worker positive, recognize and utilize cultural competency and honor diversity.
A Bit About Therapy
Guiding You On the Path of Self-Healing
We all deserve to feel safe as we navigate the challenges of life. I pride myself on creating a space you can be heard and feel safe. While I work with any individual and family looking for a safe space to process and grow, I work closely with those within the LGBTQ+ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer/Questioning) community. I approach our work together with a joint approach in which we collaborate to work through and navigate to overcome and find the beauty in your life. Some things we can focus on include building healthy relationships, compassion for yourself and others, self-discovery, personal growth and overall empowerment. Through positive, solution focused, and realistic goals, we work together to address the obstacles in your life.
Life is full of obstacles and transitions, and sometimes we need a little help navigating them. Choosing to participate in therapy comes from a place of strength, and I am here to remind you of your own strength, love, resilience and community. As a therapist I pride myself of coming from a space of no judgment, understanding and teamwork. I love my work and my LGBTQI+ community, and am honored to be a part of your journey. I work with individuals, couples and adolescents (16+).
