Psychotherapy for Women Beyond Talk Therapy
Integrative Somatic, Metaphysical, and Psychospiritual Therapy
I work with women who want a deeper, more expansive approach to psychotherapy—one that honors the whole person and creates room for your mind, body, emotions, spirituality, intuition, and lived experience.

A Different Way to Experience Therapy
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I combine my clinical skills in somatic therapy and other modalities with my years of training in metaphysical and psychospiritual approaches for integrative psychotherapy.
Our Work May Include:
Mind:
Understand your thoughts, beliefs, emotions, patterns, relationships, and the stories you’ve learned about yourself.
Body:
Learn to listen to your body, become more present, recognize sensations, work with your nervous system, and reconnect with embodied experience.
Spirit:
Explore meaning, purpose, connection, intuition, spirituality, and your own sense of what is sacred or meaningful.
Metaphysics:
Explore intuition, energy, symbolism, ritual, guided visualizations, oracle or tarot cards, manifestation, or other metaphysical practices.
Our work together is relational, collaborative, and individualized. You have complete autonomy, and I respect your beliefs, boundaries, and choices.
You do not have to believe what I believe.
Your spirituality is yours. My role is not to tell you what is true—it’s to create a space where you can explore what is meaningful, supportive, and true for you as you heal.
Is This Kind of Psychotherapy Right for You?
I work especially well with women who are:
- Spiritually curious or spiritually engaged
- Highly Sensitive or deep feelers
- In search of healing beyond talk therapy
- Interested in deep awareness and self-transformation
- Open to metaphysical and spiritual practices and approaches
- Open to mindfulness and somatic therapy
- Ready to move out of intellectualizing issues
- Interested in the mind-body connection
- Ready to reconnect with your inner knower or intuition
- Open to engaging in guided visualizations
- Ready to heal from trauma, childhood patterns, and difficult experiences
- Tired of self-abandonment and ready for self-compassion and worthiness
- Ready for deep exploration beyond your current roles and internalized beliefs
You’ve done enough traditional therapy to know that self-awareness matters—but you want to experience even deeper change.
What Brings Women to Therapy with Me?
Disconnection from Self:
You do everything for everybody and can even anticipate their needs, but you have lost sight of yourself and you have no idea what you need anymore.
People Pleasing and Perfectionism:
You are incredibly skilled at caring for others, but you’re in a continuous state of anxiety. You struggle to speak your truth. You dim your light and make yourself smaller to fit into the box of others’ needs, desires, and expectations.
Trauma and Childhood Wounds:
You are aware of your trauma and childhood issues, but you still feel on edge, get triggered, and struggle to move forward fully.
Family or Intergenerational Patterns:
You may or may not be aware of your family or intergenerational patterns, but they impact you whether or not you are conscious of them. These patterns continue to impact current relationships and self-worth.
Relationships:
You want to be in a healthy, safe, and connected relationship, but you struggle to set boundaries, use your voice, and prioritize yourself. You may lose yourself in the relationship or even stay longer than you want.
Self-Trust and Intuition:
You want to connect more with your intuition or inner voice, but you tend to seek validation, opinions, and information from others, rather than tuning into your truth.
Meet Dawn
I’m Dawn K. Gibson, MSW, LCSW. I’ve spent 27 years in the mental health field, and over that time, my understanding of healing has expanded well beyond talk therapy on its own, both professionally and personally.
Therapy can be clinically grounded, while also making space for intuition, spirituality, embodiment, and the deeper dimensions of human experience.
My work has evolved through decades of clinical training, somatic psychotherapy training, trauma work, personal growth, and my own professional spiritual and metaphysical training–as well as years of personal exploration in these areas.
All parts of you are welcome in our therapy together.
