Hi, I am Charisse Dawkins, LCSW
Lessons From the Field
More about me
Over the years, I’ve tried many tools, models, and approaches.
Some worked...others taught me what not to do.
Like the time I realized that reflective supervision wasn’t about checking a box—it was about helping overwhelmed professionals rediscover their why.
Or when a parent, after trying everything, finally slowed down and saw their child’s behavior as a need, not defiance. That shift? Changed everything.
These real-life lessons help shape how I support each individual who walks through my door—with honesty, curiosity, and heart.
