About Dawn
Dawn Ogle is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oregon who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, parenting struggles, and anger. She draws on 13 years of clinical experience and a calm, straightforward manner to help people take practical steps toward change. Her work focuses on reducing shame, improving communication, and building self-love so everyday life feels more manageable.
She uses a nonjudgmental, compassionate approach in session.
Background and approach
That means listening first, then helping people identify what gets in the way of progress. Dawn favors clear, doable strategies rather than overwhelming theory. Sessions often include plain talk about patterns and small actions to try between meetings.
Dawn’s background includes work in recovery, victims’ services, and dual-diagnosis care. She has also taught psychology courses at community colleges, which informs her ability to explain ideas in simple terms. Her experience gives her practical tools for addressing co-morbidity and complex concerns.
People frequently come with guilt, shame, or trouble with relationships and communication. Dawn supports those who are navigating polyamory or non-monogamous relationships, women’s issues, and parenting stress. She helps clients untangle family-of-origin patterns and find healthier ways to relate.
Outside of work she enjoys camping, crafting, Native American drumming and singing, rock hounding, and tending house plants. She brings that same down-to-earth energy into sessions, encouraging clients to create more space for joy and follow a path toward clearer, more manageable daily living.

How client-centered and trauma-focused care works online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. A therapist follows the client's pace, reflects what is heard, and helps people find their own solutions. This approach is useful for building confidence, improving self-love, and addressing everyday stress and communication problems.Trauma-Focused Therapy targets the impact of trauma and abuse on thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It involves helping people recognize how past events affect current reactions and learning coping skills to lessen distress. This approach is often used for anxiety, trauma responses, and difficulties with shame or addiction triggers.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adapt methods over time. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions to an individual's needs rather than forcing one fixed method.
Online therapy offers flexibility for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls let people work face-to-face from a convenient location. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a session needs to fit into a short break. Live chat and text messaging allow brief check-ins, written reflections, and ongoing support between longer meetings. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, family, and travel.
