Takes A Village Space

a message from Dawn...

"The Village" is rooted in a deep understanding that true well-being extends beyond mere mental, emotional, and spiritual support. To truly embrace a life worth living, we require more. We need profound healing, essential life skills, and a profound understanding of our core values. Only with these elements in place can we authentically s

We offer a haven where individuals can access comprehensive support encompassing all these dimensions. Drawing upon my extensive 35+ years of diverse experience, I have been a caregiver to a parent suffering with bipolar illness, a volunteer in senior and youth detention facilities, a mental health worker, a compassionate school counselor, an advocate for the LGBTQ+ community, a devoted parent of three and mother in law to two, a partner for 34 yrs, a certified DBT counselor, and adept in various domains such as Eating Disorder training, Reiki mastery, and End of Life Doula services. Through these roles, I have confronted and understood the trials of addiction, mental health challenges, parenting children with learning differences, eating disorders, anxiety, and the myriad struggles that the Queer community often faces.

A cornerstone of "Takes A Village" is the creation of a safe space — an environment where safety isn't just a concept but a palpable reality. I believe that safety is the bedrock upon which growth, transformation, and true flourishing can occur. In this haven, individuals are empowered to be unabashedly themselves, to express their innermost feelings, their anger, their pain, and their struggles. This sanctuary allows for the dismantling of damaging behaviors and the nurturing of authentic growth.

You deserve a space where you are not only supported but cherished for your uniqueness. You deserve the tools to heal, the skills to thrive, and the understanding of your inherent worth. By amplifying this message, I aspire to touch lives, to extend a lifeline to those who need it most, and to create a ripple effect of positive change in our communities.

This is my response to a world that craves holistic healing, genuine growth, and sincere acceptance. With unwavering dedication and a wealth of experience, I am committed to fostering a sanctuary where every individual can embark on a transformative journey toward a life filled with purpose, resilience, and shared gifts.
