Welcome To Wesley Counseling

Dr. Martin and Dawn Wesley, and their four-legged therapists, welcome you to their website, home and to their family. They are here to listen and support you. While they have decades of experience and education to help guide you and your family, they are also fellow travelers on life’s journey and will walk with you. They will walk with you when you feel lost, helpless and alone. They understand what you and your family are going through and often have been there themselves or shared in similar experiences through the lives of their clients. At Wesley Counseling you are not a label or diagnostic code, you are someone special that has been placed on our path and we consider it a privilege and honor to walk with you. Pierre and Maggie, our four-legged therapists would also love to walk with you, if you so desire.

FOR A LIMITED TIME, we are offering no-cost therapy sessions through our Counselor-in-Training (CIT) internships! You can work with a qualified CIT for up to 6 sessions. Call or text Dawn at 813-439-7676 to find out more about this limited offering.

Nathan’s story:

“When Dawn came to our home, we felt like a load of stress had disappeared. She kept us accountable as parents, but also worked with Nate to makes sure he finished his homework on time, as well as worked on his anger management strategies. Being busy parents, it’s sometimes hard. Dawn helped a lot with Nathan and our family.”
