Meet Dominica Applegate

I didn't start out as a writer.

I started in behavioral health - sitting across from people in crisis, coordinating care, facilitating groups, and helping families navigate complicated systems. I earned my degree in psychology from the University of Pittsburgh and later completed a master’s degree while working directly with individuals facing mental health, substance use, and developmental challenges

That experience shaped how I write.

For the past 15+ years, I’ve built a professional content practice serving healthcare organizations, SaaS companies, B2B brands, and agencies. My work lives at the intersection of clarity and credibility. I translate complex topics — behavioral health, recovery, compliance, HR strategy, financial transitions, workforce management — into content that real people can understand and trust.

I don’t write fluff.
I don’t write hype.
And I don’t write to fill space.

I write to inform responsibly, rank strategically, and move readers toward thoughtful action.

What Makes My Work Different

Strategic SEO foundation.
Search intent, structure, internal linking logic, and natural keyword placement are built into my process - not added later.

Audience awareness.
Whether I’m writing for executives, families seeking care, HR leaders, or SaaS decision-makers, I focus on clarity, trust, and usability.

Professional reliability.
Agencies and corporate clients value consistency. I deliver clean drafts, respect deadlines, and collaborate well within structured workflows.

Areas of Focus

• Healthcare & behavioral health
• B2B & professional services
• SaaS education content
• SEO blog strategy
• Website and landing page copy
• Research-informed articles

Writing is not just what I do. It’s how I bridge complexity and understanding.

If you’re looking for a writer who brings both real-world behavioral health experience and strategic content expertise to the table, I’d welcome the opportunity to collaborate.

Let’s build content that works and holds up.
