Dawn Sweeten, LCSW

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida with over 16 years of professional work experience. I have worked with both adults and teens dealing with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. I also have a good deal of experience in working with the mental health challenges that come along with a chronic or acute illness.
