Dawn Ippoliti(She/Her/Hers)

Dawn Ippoliti, LCAT, LPAT, ATR-BC is a licensed therapist in New York and New Jersey who specializes in art therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) to support transformational growth and healing. She particularly enjoys helping emerging adults embrace their full selves, build confidence in their choices, and navigate life’s transitions with greater calm and resilience.

Dawn works with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, family challenges, life transitions, and complex trauma. With gentle guidance and a grounding presence, she helps clients explore the emotional patterns shaped by their past and clarify what truly matters, so they can create a more meaningful and fulfilling life.

Her holistic, evidence-based approach emphasizes grounding techniques, cultivating attunement, and taking intentional action. Through art therapy and KAP, clients are invited to explore deeper aspects of themselves in non-ordinary states of consciousness. Using a Psychedelic Harm Reduction and Integration (PHRI) framework, Dawn integrates creative exploration with active discussion and practical tools to deepen insight and integration. Whether or not clients engage in art therapy or KAP, her clinical expertise supports them in developing psychological flexibility, connecting with inner wisdom, and fostering lasting healing in creative ways.

Dawn is committed to providing a safe, compassionate, and personalized space where clients can show up authentically and engage in self-discovery. She currently offers virtual sessions for clients in New York and New Jersey, and in-person sessions at her office conveniently located in downtown Westfield, NJ.
