I am a solution-focused therapist coach, and I can help you challenge your thinking patterns
I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 35 years of experience providing therapy to adults seeking support with depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship concerns, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and social or performance anxiety. I offer a direct yet compassionate approach that helps you explore your thoughts, challenge unhelpful patterns, and gain clarity. I also have extensive experience in life coaching for clients who feel stuck and want practical, meaningful steps forward.
I earned my Master of Social Work from Florida State University. My approach integrates cognitive behavioral treatment, humanistic and experiential principles, and education about how nutrition, exercise, and emerging research in psychiatric genetics can support overall wellness. I also explore alternatives to medication when appropriate.
I take a solution-focused approach and help clients recognize and shift thinking patterns that contribute to emotional distress. Change can be difficult, but with awareness and support, it becomes possible. My goal is to offer a space where you feel validated, encouraged, and equipped to pursue meaningful growth.

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.

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.
