I am honored that you are considering me to accompany you on your mental health journey.
I am a Resident in Counseling with 5 years of experience supporting clients from diverse cultural backgrounds. I specialize in helping individuals facing depression, anxiety, work stress, and addiction. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore challenges, build resilience, and foster growth. My goal is to empower clients to manage stress, improve relationships, and overcome patterns of self-doubt so they feel more balanced, confident, and connected in their daily lives.
I have a Master’s in Social Work from Our Lady of the Lake University. I integrate evidence-based practices such as dialectical behavior therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care. I tailor therapy to meet each client’s needs, ensuring that every person feels understood, supported, and empowered in their healing journey.
I believe everyone deserves a safe place to feel heard and supported. Life’s challenges can be heavy, but you don’t have to face them alone. Through warmth, compassion, and care, I help clients find healing, balance, and hope while working together at a pace that feels right for them.

I help clients make sense of difficult emotions and patterns by breaking complex ideas into clear, practical tools they can actually use in everyday life.
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than nine years of experience helping adults navigate anxiety, trauma, relationship difficulties, emotional overwhelm, and patterns that leave them feeling stuck. I work especially well with clients who want more than a place to vent—they're looking for practical insight, clearer direction, and tools they can apply in everyday life. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, recognize patterns shaping your choices, and create meaningful, sustainable change.
My approach is practical, collaborative, and focused on making emotional and psychological concepts easier to understand. I use skill-based strategies for emotional regulation, trauma processing, cognitive reframing, mindfulness, and behavioral change. You can expect honest conversation, curiosity, humor, and tools tailored to how you think and live.
You don't have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. We can begin where you are, make sense of what's been weighing on you, and work toward changes that feel realistic and meaningful. If you're ready for a supportive, practical space focused on moving forward, I encourage you to schedule an appointment.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

With Thriveworks, Online therapy is an effective alternative to in-person therapy services in which a client can speak to a Thriveworks therapist remotely via online video conferencing. Online sessions are just as effective as in-person treatment, but they can also provide added benefits like reduced travel time, saving money on transportation or childcare, and increased access to care.
Online therapy works much like traditional in-person therapy but takes place through secure video conferencing. Clients can attend Online therapy from any safe place they choose that has access to the internet, whether that be their home or another easily accessible place. Like in-person treatment, a therapist will work with their client to address their concerns, create goals, and establish an effective treatment plan.
There is no best option for online therapy—instead, it’s best to focus on finding a provider that meets your specific needs and with whom you can form a professional connection with.
Yes, online therapy is just as effetive for many clients as in-person sessions.
Online therapy can last for a few months to years depending on the goals and symptoms of the client. The treatment process will be unique to each client and lend itself to their specific concerns, which means that the time it takes to treat them will always be different. Timing is also up to the client themselves; they are free to stop therapy whenever they please, especially if they feel they have reached their goals and addressed their concerns.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay.
