About
Having experienced close family loss and living with a learning disability, I deeply understand how life’s challenges can weigh heavily and the pressure to push beyond what feels humanly possible.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associate with 4 years of experience supporting individuals and families through times of challenge and change. My background includes providing care in both academic and correctional settings, where I focused on family connection, emotional regulation, and rehabilitation. My master’s internship was at a male correctional facility, where I worked in both group and individual settings focused on emotional growth and resilience. I’m passionate about helping clients navigate learning and developmental disabilities, build coping skills, and find renewed purpose in their healing journey.
I earned my Master’s in Social Work from West Virginia University. I use cognitive behavioral therapy and mindful interviewing to help clients manage emotions, strengthen coping skills, and shift unhelpful thought patterns.
My approach is compassionate, goal-focused, and collaborative. I truly care about understanding what you’re going through and providing a safe, supportive space for healing. You don’t have to face things alone. Let’s navigate this journey together. When you’re ready, I’m here for you.

I am a dually licensed clinician who has over 16 years experience in clinical social work. My background includes over 20 years in the child welfare system dealing with abuse, neglect, trauma and individual/family issues.
I have assisted my clients with gaining and finding self validation, self-worth and opportunities to engage in self reflection at their own pace. I meet clients where they are at and highlight growth. Recognizing that each person has their own experiences and perceptions and deserve respect and dignity.

My go-to approach for helping people in couples/marriage counseling is CBT/CBCT. I enjoy the benefits of CBT/CBCT because it allows the client to identify and change thought patterns that negatively influence behavior.
I teach the following tools in couples/marriage counseling:
I know a client is making meaningful progress in couples/marriage counseling when the couple has reconciled and worked through their differences.
Clients can supplement their time in couples/marriage counseling with weekly date nights. This helps the couple share time and get intimately closer to one another.
To prepare for your first couples/marriage counseling session, you can identify and write down your feelings so you can explain your emotional state to the therapist.
Couples therapy and marriage counseling, also known as relationship counseling, helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. Some examples of common focuses within couples therapy and marriage counseling include:
The types of therapy used in couples and marriage counseling include:
At Thriveworks, Couples/marriage therapy is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples.
The Gottman Method of couples therapy is a research-supported approach designed to enhance relationships by bolstering the bond between partners, resolving conflicts, and fostering shared meaning in their relationship through comprehensive assessments and tailored interventions that improve communication, trust, and the overall health of the partnership.
If you’re facing persistent relationship problems, communication breakdowns, or unresolved conflicts that are impacting your emotional well-being and happiness, Couples/marriage therapy may be beneficial for you.
While marriage and couple’s counseling is typically recommended for couples who are experiencing persistent or severe relationship issues, any relationship can benefit from attending these sessions.
Marriage and couples counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
On average, couples attend marriage and couples counseling for 12 weeks. However, couples & marriage counseling may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress.
