About
I welcome people from all walks of life, and want you to know you will be supported, cared for, and hopefully experience the growth you’d like to see in yourself.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Tennessee with 30 years of professional experience. I specialize in helping individuals and couples manage stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma, abuse, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, and addictions. I create a safe, open, and supportive environment where clients can share without fear of judgment. Taking the first step into therapy can feel overwhelming, but I am here to walk alongside you with compassion, encouragement, and respect for your unique journey.
I earned my Master’s in Social Work from West Virginia University. My approach integrates evidence-based practices such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, solution-focused therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy.
I understand that beginning therapy can feel intimidating, but I strive to make the process welcoming and supportive. My goal is to create a safe space where you feel heard and valued while building skills to support your growth. Together, we will work toward healing, resilience, and greater confidence in your everyday life.

Cannabis use disorder counseling from our Thriveworks therapists in Johnson City can help people manage their urges to use cannabis. In addition, it can help people manage the challenges that stem from their cannabis use disorder, from relationship issues to problems at work, as well as those that their disorder may stem from, like trauma.
Cannabis use disorder counseling works by helping one understand the underlying causes of their disorder, teaching them coping strategies, and recognizing their specific triggers. Long-term or ongoing cannabis use disorder counseling can also help to prevent relapse.
Cannabis use disorder counseling at Thriveworks Johnson City, TN is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

The psychoactive compound, Delta-9-TetraHydrocannabinol (THC) is contained in the stem, leaves, and buds of the cannabis plant. THC has a depressant effect in a person’s body which slows the brain-body connection. In large quantities, THC is also a hallucinogen.
DSM-5 labels the addiction as Cannabis Use Disorder, and it defines CUD as cannabis use for a minimum of one year wherein people’s daily functioning is hindered by their cannabis use.
Treating CUD can be a challenge. Detoxing may produce withdrawal symptoms, and learning to live without weed may involve learning new coping skills.
There is no quick fix for treating CUD, but it is often worth the effort. Many people have reported the benefits, including:
