About
As an individual who has experienced loss and challenges in accepting it, I strive to build a connection and provide assistance in building a future that exceeds the past.
I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 18 years of experience supporting clients through anxiety, trauma-related concerns, mood disorders, and stress management. I have worked in outpatient group settings, private practice, and with older adults navigating life transitions. I also specialize in supporting children and teens with attention-related needs. I strive to create a safe, affirming space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow.
I earned my master’s degree in social work from the University of Southern Mississippi. My approach is collaborative and grounded in evidence-based care, including cognitive-behavioral strategies, mindfulness-based techniques, and supportive processing to help clients shift patterns, strengthen resilience, and build practical coping skills.
You deserve support, understanding, and a space where you feel safe. If you are ready to sort through what has been weighing on you, I am here. I welcome you to schedule an appointment and look forward to helping you feel more confident, grounded, and capable as you move toward the life you want.

As a therapist with over a decade of experience supporting children, adolescents, and families across community, school, and intensive settings, I bring a grounded, compassionate approach that honors each person’s story while helping them build practical tools for lasting change.
I hold a doctorate in professional counseling and a master's degree in counseling psychology, and I am a licensed professional counselor in Mississippi with over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. I've worked with individuals facing trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. Choosing a therapist is a personal decision, and I strive to make that choice feel safe and worthwhile. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices—meaning we work together to understand what's holding you back and build practical tools that actually help.
I believe healing happens in a space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered, and my goal is to help you move toward a life that feels more balanced, meaningful, and authentically yours. Reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, but you don’t have to navigate things alone.
Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready for something to shift, I’m here to walk alongside you with compassion, clarity, and practical guidance. When you’re ready, I invite you to take the next step and schedule an appointment so we can begin that work together.

OCD counseling is a specialized therapeutic approach aimed at supporting individuals coping with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The goal of this counseling is to help clients manage and alleviate the distressing symptoms of OCD by systematically addressing their obsessive thought patterns and compulsive behaviors.
In OCD counseling, Thriveworks Hattiesburg therapists use cognitive behavioral techniques, including exposure and response prevention, to assist you in addressing and managing your obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. An OCD therapist will collaborate with you to identify and modify irrational thought patterns while gradually and gently exposing you to anxiety-triggering situations, helping to disrupt the cycle of obsessive-compulsive rituals and promote healthier coping strategies.
Thriveworks OCD counseling in Hattiesburg, MS is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The number of sessions for OCD counseling is variable, contingent upon the individual’s unique needs, the severity of their condition, and their progress during treatment. Typically, Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), commonly used for OCD, comprises around 12 to 16 weekly sessions, but the exact session count can be customized based on the individual’s response to treatment and therapeutic objectives. Some opt for a more extended duration to comprehensively manage symptoms and address complex issues.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
