About
With 25 years of experience working with children, couples, and individuals who have experienced trauma, I understand how this impacts them and their family members.
I am a licensed mental health counselor (MH 5517) with over 30 years of experience. At age 40, I recognized my true calling in life. With three children at home, and working full-time with retail, I returned back to school to obtain my Master of Science degree in Mental Health Counseling from Nova Southeastern University in 1996. Three years later, I received my licensure. I have worked with several programs affiliated with the Florida Department of Children & Families and with the children who experienced abuse and/or neglect. With this experience I was able to understand the impact of trauma on my clients.
I have taught classes in MAPP (Model Approach to Partnership in Parenting), ACT (Adoption Competency Training) & in PIP (Partnership In Parenting). I've taught classes associated with the Human Rights Campaign regarding LGBTQ issues. Working with couples & families, I help to reinforce attachments, helping family members with anxiety, depression or anger.
While supporting my clients, I work to create & maintain a compassionate, loving and supportive home environment. Using a blend of both cognitive-behavioral therapy & mindfulness, I am able to create a safe space where my clients are able to recognize their behaviors. I hope I can help you navigate your own life’s challenges to gain clarity and purpose.

Premarital counseling is a type of therapy that helps couples prepare for and build a happy, successful marriage. Premarital therapists at Thriveworks in Boca Raton, FL can help couples develop essential communication skills, identify potential conflict areas, and learn how to manage their specific relationship issues.
When you and your partner begin premarital counseling, your counselor will want to get to know you both as well as your relationship. In order to accomplish this, they will ask questions around the following:
If there is a particular area that they feel needs to be explored further (for example, you note that you and your partner have very different spending habits and views on money), they’ll guide the conversation in the given direction.
Premarital counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and through Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
Generally speaking, Thriveworks premarital counseling in Boca Raton typically lasts for 8-10 weeks. This, however, can vary depending on the counselor’s approach as well as the clients’ preferences and needs.
