About
I believe healing happens when you feel genuinely heard, respected, and supported as a whole person, not just a diagnosis.
I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) with 15 years of experience providing compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care. I work with children ages 10 and older, adolescents, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD, mood disorders, trauma, and psychotic disorders. Many of the clients I support feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, or stuck and are seeking clarity, stability, and relief.
I earned my master’s degree in nursing from the University of South Alabama. My approach is collaborative, individualized, and compassionate, with a focus on understanding each client’s full experience, strengths, and goals. I provide thoughtful evaluations, clear education, and treatment planning that may include medication management and supportive care.
Seeking mental health care can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. I strive to meet clients with respect, understanding, and support while helping them improve emotional well-being and daily functioning. I would be honored to support you as you take the next step toward healing and growth when you feel ready.

Personality disorder counseling is an effective form of mental health treatment for those with personality disorders. It aims to treat dangerous behavior as well as behavior that might contribute to a low quality of life.
Thriveworks personality disorder counseling in Littleton, CO is personalized to each individual, dependent on their unique needs and the severity of their personality disorder. That said, it often works best to have a team of professionals involved in treatment, which might include a psychiatric provider and/or other experts in addition to your therapist.
Thriveworks’ personality disorder counseling in Littleton, CO is conducted both in person and virtually through online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The length of personality disorder counseling sessions will depend on the individual’s specific personality disorder, which means it can vary from one person to the next.
Being diagnosed with a personality disorder can be an overwhelming experience. While it may feel frightening, the truth is that getting a proper diagnosis is the first step toward healing. Once you understand what personality disorders are – and how they can be treated – you may feel differently about your diagnosis. Feeling that you’re the only person in the world struggling with these disorders can be alienating but the truth is that as many as 30% of people who seek help for mental health issues are eventually diagnosed with a personality disorder.
Thriveworks in Littleton, CO has many mental health professionals like counselors, psychologists, and therapists who specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of personality disorders. They can help you feel in control again. Reach out today to get started.
At Thriveworks in Littleton, CO, treatment plans for personality disorders are created for individuals, thus there is no A-Z list of steps that everyone follows. However, it’s often the case that the first step is getting emotions under control. Both therapies and medications can help with this. A counselor might use a psychotherapy approach like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in addition to skills training.
Everyone has certain beliefs about themselves, the world, and other people around them. However, a core belief is something that is totally rigid and inflexible. People with personality disorders may need to learn how their specific core beliefs are developed over time and how to break them.
Personality disorder is an umbrella term for many different types of disorders. Most of these disorders fit into three basic categories which are called “clusters.” A licensed mental health professional at Thriveworks in Littleton, CO will likely use the criteria outlined in the Fifth Edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) to determine the nature of someone’s personality disorder.
Cluster A includes paranoid personality disorder, schizoid personality disorder, and schizotypal personality disorder.
Cluster B includes antisocial personality disorder, borderline personality disorder, histrionic personality disorder, and narcissistic personality disorder.
Cluster C includes avoidant personality disorder, dependent personality disorder, and obsessive compulsive personality disorder.
The best way to move forward depends on the particular cluster a personality disorder falls under – amongst other criteria.
Mental health providers experienced with personality disorders can help you understand your emotions and the specifics of your disorder, and help you find the right way to move forward in your life. Thriveworks in Littleton, CO has psychiatrists, therapists, and other professionals ready to help change your life. Most new clients can meet with their provider as early as the same week of their initial booking. We accept most major insurances, and offer weekend and evening appointments.
