Meet Your Psychologist
Dr. Dominique Outlaw-Howell is a trauma-conscious psychologist who specializes in helping individuals heal from complex trauma, chronic stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and longstanding emotional patterns that keep them feeling stuck. Her therapeutic approach integrates evidence-based modalities—such as CPT, DBT-informed, CBT, ACT, IFS-informed work, and somatic-based practices—to support meaningful and sustainable change.
With clinical experience across community mental health, hospitals, private practice, and culturally diverse settings, Dr. Outlaw-Howell brings a warm, grounded, and relational presence to every session. She believes healing happens when individuals feel safe, understood, and empowered to reconnect with their bodies, their values, and their inner wisdom.
Dr. Outlaw-Howell is also trained in trauma-conscious yoga and the mind–body connection, often incorporating somatic strategies, breath-work, and nervous-system awareness into sessions. Her work centers inclusivity and justice, with a special focus on supporting marginalized communities, LGBTQ+ individuals, and neurodivergent clients.
Her style is collaborative, non-judgmental, and deeply compassionate. She partners with clients to build internal safety, strengthen boundaries, reduce stress responses, and cultivate resilience so they can move toward a life that feels aligned, regulated, and purposeful.
Outside the therapy room, Dr. Outlaw-Howell is passionate about wellness education, mindfulness, yoga, music, and community events, and is committed to destigmatizing mental health for communities of color. She seeks activities that foster creativity, connection, and personal growth. By blending clinical expertise with authenticity and creativity, she strives to make psychological care accessible, engaging, and transformative.
