About Dawn Rochelle

Have you ever struggled to communicate with someone? Have you ever reached a point in your life where you just were not sure of the next step? Have you ever felt misunderstood and just could not understand why? Have you ever just wanted to give up?

We all have. And many times it just takes the courage to realize how we are in our own way and the courage to educate ourselves to have new awareness so that we can take action.

I am a trauma trained licensed clinical social worker in EMDR. I want to see people lead a well life so my approach is to find what is working in your life first so that we can use those skills to ensure the day can be okay for you while we work through addressing what is not going well or what you want to work through. How do we do this together? We identify your priorities and I coach you through how to address what is needed.

My 37+ year career has led me to my own practice where I specialize in Executive Coaching alongside wellness, life skills development, problem solving, visioning work to help my clients live a better life. My training ensures that we identify the negative messages that are in the way of your life, whether from your own creation or in toxic environments. And then we work to remove them in specific and targeted ways. Life is short and we all need to live our best life.

I am uniquely skilled to work with those in a season of life transition, grief, and anxiety. I find energy in helping couples find the joy in their marriage again and I particularly find energy in supporting parents unconditionally love their children when they find it hard to like some of their behaviors. I work with executives, athletes, military, entrepreneurs, etc. of all backgrounds. I support diversity, equity and inclusion efforts in all of my community, civic, professional and personal life.

“Dawn was incredibly helpful during a very challenging period in my life. I was struggling with a difficult situation involving my business partner, and it was affecting both my professional and personal well-being. Through her guidance, thoughtful questions, and practical advice, she helped me work through the mental roadblocks I was facing and gain a much clearer perspective on the situation.<br /> <br /> What I appreciated most was her ability to listen without judgment while helping me identify constructive ways to move forward. Our sessions gave me the confidence to make decisions with a calmer mindset and reduced a great deal of stress and anxiety that had been weighing on me.<br /> <br /> I am very grateful for her support and would highly recommend Dawn to anyone dealing with challenging personal or professional circumstances.”

“Dawn in incredibly knowledgeable. She was able to support me tremendously, even after the first session. I am already feeling better and seeing growth. I am excited for all that she’s going to help me discover within myself.”

“Dr Rochelle does an amazing job of getting to the root cause of my problems and issues and her plan of care focuses on the truth and facts of the matter and not what makes me feel good because sometimes the truth hurts. Thank you for helping point the path to healing.”

“I’ve went to several therapist over the years and so far this has been the best experience I have ever had. Dawn is absolutely amazing and I know she will help me.”

“Dawn has coached me through the most pivotal times of my life and really helping me with doing the inner work to evolve out of my self-sabatoging patterns. To have someone like this in your corner is absolutely a gift and life changing. Thank you Dawn.”

“I have been seeing Dawn since 2016/2017 timeframe. She has helped me through many chapters of my life. I would be lost without her :)”

“At least she has an understanding of the military, which I like. She’s good”

“Dawn has become a highly valued influence in our lives. She has guided us out of a crisis and is helping us build strategies for better communication and harmony in our marriage. She is highly knowledgeable about our children’s behaviour and how to navigate their quirks! Highly recommended.”

“Dawn makes us both feel respected and heard. She is very experienced and has provided us with practical guidance. We feel very positive about our future with thanks to Dawns help.”

“Dawn has been my therapist for over 5 years now. She helped me through a divorce while supporting me through the dating world after a divorce. A year ago she helped guide me through working very long hours in a high stress job and just this week I have started working with Dawn again on how to take better care of myself! I recommend Dawn to everyone who is looking for help.”

“Have really enjoyed working with Dawn over the last 2 months. Dealing with a variety of challenges from work / motherhood / dealing with daily stressors. She doesn’t jump to conclusions or try to name things / categorise things without trying to fully understand the context and focusing in moving forward with helpful tools. <br /> <br /> I have done a few EMDR sessions with her and it has changed my mindset tremendously after facing similar challenges arrive. Would highly recommend. She does not advertise herself a lot as she has a discrete list of clients she works with. I am grateful for her support.”

“Spending time with Dawn Rochelle is having many positive outcomes for my wife and I, she has felt like a lifeline in some of the worst times but we’re making good progress with Dawns wise and kind words”

“Dawn is like no other therapist I've ever worked with. I've been "through the motions" with others... tried and failed.. but with her, I often feel like she knows me better than I know myself. And without ever feeling pressured or schooled, she's allowed me to find my own strength on my own journey to Oz, only for me to realize that I had the power all along. For me, I think it's been about learning how to learn - regardless of which yellow brick road needs to show me the way.”

“Dawn is a wonderful councillor we have been progressing so well as a couple with her help”

“Dawn knows how to get right to the issues. She focuses on solutions and helps you see things from a perspective that changes how you relate to yourself and the rest of the world, going forward positively.”
