I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Bachelor of Social Work and a Master of Social Work (MSW). I specialize in adolescents, children, LGBTQIA+ concerns, and crisis treatment. Building a strong therapeutic alliance is crucial, and I prioritize forming a close bond with each client. I strive to create a safe, open, and honest environment, offering compassion, empathy, and nonjudgmental support to help you reach your goals successfully.

A proud Texan, I love traveling and spending time with my family, which includes three children, two dogs, a parrot, and a leopard gecko. In my free time, I enjoy puzzles and reading.

Dakota specializes in children and adolescents (8 & up), ADHD, DMDD, self-injury, trauma/PTSD, LGBTQ+, depression, anxiety, and life stressors.
