About
As a woman with eight years of experience in mental health, I bring a culturally grounded, compassionate approach that honors your lived experience and creates a safe space where you can feel seen, heard, and empowered to heal.
I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with a Master of Science in Nursing and eight years of experience in mental health care. I provide compassionate, evidence-based treatment to children, adolescents, and adults across the lifespan. I work with clients facing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma, ADHD, and other psychiatric concerns. Many come seeking clarity, medication management, coping skills, and emotional balance, and I strive to create a supportive, collaborative space for healing and growth.
My approach is collaborative, culturally responsive, and solution-focused. I combine thorough assessment and thoughtful medication management to promote stability and growth. You can expect to feel heard, respected, and actively involved in your care, while also building practical tools for lasting emotional wellness.
Taking the first step toward support can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to navigate it alone. Your experiences are valid, and healing is possible with the right support. When you're ready, I welcome you to schedule an appointment so we can begin your journey toward greater balance and well-being together.

I am a LCSW licensed in 1989. Much of my career has been spent with military members and their families affording me with knowledge and insight into the complexities of military service. I have worked extensively with depression, anxiety, trauma, and grief. I understand the burdens these painful circumstances bring. I believe in meeting clients where they are with compassion and empathy, and I believe in the indomitable human spirit.
As a LCSW, I've had years of training in multiple methods of working with trauma including CBT, DBT, CBT-PTSD, ACT, Ego State, and EMDR. I believe in the worth of every individual and no two experiences are the same. I believe empathy, respect, and a nonjudgmental approach set the stage for positive client outcomes.
In choosing to engage in therapy with me, I hope you will find warmth and acceptance, a listening ear and understanding heart. Once you engage, you will find the process fluid, with you in charge of your goals and outcomes while I provide tools, support, feedback, and encouragement along the way.

Yes, there are therapists who help with anger via Anger management therapy. It’s a therapeutic process that an individual goes through to manage their anger and identify its triggers. They’re given clear instructions on how to improve their angry behavior as well as a safe space for opening up about their emotions.
Once an individual’s triggers are identified, anger management therapy focuses on helping the individual process and respond to these emotions in a more positive and productive manner. The anger management therapist will provide coping strategies and ultimately help their client take back control of their anger.
The five keys to mastering anger include identifying triggers, pausing before reacting, calmly expressing emotions, discovering constructive outlets for frustration, and seeking professional assistance if necessary. Acquiring these skills through Anger management therapy empowers individuals to effectively manage and navigate their anger.
The best therapy for anger management often involves cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps individuals identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior related to anger.
Anger management therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Often, Anger management therapy lasts between 4-6 weeks. However, it can last longer, dependent on the individual’s needs.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
Includes reducing symptoms with medication & management
