Dawn Beechner, LCSW
Hello my name is Dawn Beecher, I am an LCSW. I can remember being sensitive to others at a young age. This was especially true if someone looked sad or appeared to be in need of comfort. Helping others came natural to me and becoming a therapist was a career path that I readily pursued. As a compassionate therapist, it is my privilege to work with patients as they allow me to come into their life. Together we will work on thoughts and behaviors to address sadness, anxiety, troubled relationships, fears and concerns. I look forward to helping you regain happiness and fulfillment in your life.

Erika Punchard, LCSW
"What is right about you is far more powerful than what is wrong with you." I believe Therapy is a Journey not a destination that starts with "You." As your therapist I will be by your side to listen, support, guide and empower you as you tackle the bumps and bruises you may encounter along the way. I'm also excited to share in the successes you are going to have. I have over 15 years of experience in the helping profession. I place value on getting to know who you are as a person not just the problems you may be experiencing. I am passionate about helping others and can't wait to be part of your journey.
