Dr. Dawn Johnson and Associates is a boutique, private pay group practice based in Washington, DC.  We support a great population of clients - typically high achieving college students through established professionals struggling with anxiety, relationships, family of origin concerns, self-esteem/body image, perinatal/parenting, and life transitions.

Providing high quality clinical care from a range of theoretical approaches, and we welcome your unique voice to our mix
