Dawn Wilcox

I am a Psychotherapist and EMDR therapist specializing in working with adolescents, families and adults for more than 20 years. I am registered as an accredited member with The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS). I fully embrace and support the mind-body connection and integrate insights from current neuro-developmental science and somatic practices. I have advanced clinical training in the area of trauma, attachment trauma, and polyvagal theory informed practices. Through our work together, I strive to provide a compassionate and well informed understanding of why you may be struggling or seeking assistance for challenging areas in your life that may have been impacted by trauma and earlier adverse experiences. I offer parenting support for parents looking for assistance helping their children with challenging behaviors or struggling with life stressors. I help parents better understand the brain body connection and how best to show up for their children to help their child feel seen, safe, and supported. Parents can benefit from my compassionate approach that supports them as well and offers them guidance without any shame or guilt. I am trained in EMDR therapy, Internal Family Systems, Polyvagal informed practices, and Embodied Coaching. I earned my Masters of Clinical Social Work in the United States. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the United State, as well as an EMDR International Association Certified EMDR therapist and EMDR Consultant. I have an established private practice as well in New Jersey. I currently am a Senior Trainer for Deb Dana's Foundations of Polyvagal Informed practices in the US and UK. I welcome the opportunity to provide support, connection, regulation, and safety to support you on your own healing journey. I offer in-person and on-line sessions and a free 30 minute initial Zoom call.
