About
I value connection and relationship-building as essential to the healing process, offering empathy, active listening, and a safe, supportive space grounded in my understanding of trauma, loss, and the importance of trust in therapy.
I am a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) with 29 years of experience in the mental health field. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, self-esteem concerns, personality disorders, and life transitions. I have provided care in both clinical and community-based settings and value creating a safe, respectful, and nonjudgmental space for healing.
I earned my master’s degree in mental health counseling and human services from Capella University in Minneapolis. My approach is humanistic and client-centered, incorporating cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based practices. I focus on building empathy, collaboration, and structure to support meaningful and sustainable change.
You hold the key to your own healing and growth. My role is not to fix you, but to walk alongside you as a guide, helping you access your strengths and move forward with clarity and confidence. If you are feeling stuck or overwhelmed, please reach out when you are ready to begin.

Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is a specialized psychotherapeutic approach that focuses on assisting individuals in processing traumatic memories, diminishing their emotional intensity, and facilitating the integration of the traumatic experience into their past, enabling them to progress in their lives. This process follows four steps: history-taking, preparing the client, assessing the target memory, and processing the memory and finding an adaptive resolution. After this, Thriveworks EMDR therapists in Billings will continue to help individuals process the memory and evaluate the results of the treatment to ensure its effectiveness.
EMDR is primarily employed to aid individuals who have endured trauma, including those with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and who have experienced other distressing life events.
EMDR therapy is generally less suitable for individuals currently experiencing acute trauma or those who have not yet acquired fundamental coping and distress tolerance skills. To engage in EMDR therapy effectively, one must possess a certain degree of distress tolerance.
EMDR tends to be very effective in relieving the negative symptoms associated with trauma. In a study performed by Francine Shapiro called The Role of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy in Medicine: Addressing the Psychological and Physical Symptoms Stemming from Adverse Life Experiences (2014), results showed that after just three EMDR sessions, 84% of participants reported a remission of PTSD diagnosis. EMDR will often have a higher success rate for survivors of a single traumatic event than for those who have experienced repeated or multiple instances of trauma when EMDR is performed for the same amount of time. This is due to the increased intensity of the trauma and the need to process multiple events.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state. More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.
