About
I know firsthand what it’s like to face anxiety, stress, trauma, and grief. That’s why I’m dedicated to walking alongside others as they navigate their own challenges, offering hope, compassion, and support to help them move forward and live a fulfilling life.
I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 18 years of experience in the mental health field. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, family conflict, and parenting concerns in children, adolescents, and adults. I have extensive experience providing individual therapy, family therapy, and parental support services in therapeutic counseling settings.
I earned my Master of Science in mental health counseling from Walden University. I am trained in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy and EMDR, and I take an individualized approach to care, recognizing that no single model fits every client. My style is direct, honest, and compassionate.
I strive to create a safe, supportive space where you can openly explore your experiences and goals. Together, we will develop a personalized treatment plan to help you build insight, resilience, and meaningful change. If you’re ready to begin your healing journey, I invite you to schedule a session.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, navigating a life transition, or seeking support for yourself or your child, you don’t have to carry that weight alone. I strive to create a space where you feel heard and supported as we work together to build resilience, strengthen your voice, and move toward meaningful and lasting change.

I work with clients on replacing negative self-talk with positive self-talk.
I use cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness when doing depression counseling.
I see progress when the client has achieved treatment goals/objectives. For example, one of the objectives might be to decrease isolation, and the client reports they are getting outside more.
Clients can work on being aware of what their depression triggers are and changing unhelpful behavior. For example, if they are isolating themselves at home, they should notice what that behavior is doing and try to get outside more.
Clients can think about and maybe write down the triggers of their depression.
Depression counseling can help those with major depression, minor depression, postpartum depression, persistent depressive disorder, and more. The providers at Thriveworks in Maumelle, AR will develop a unique treatment plan based on your specific experience, needs, and goals.
It is absolutely worth going to therapy for depression — depression counseling helps people better manage their symptoms and get back to living happier lives again.

Common signs of depression include:

We all have moments of sadness and grief or periods of feeling a little blue. Those are quite common and have no lasting effect on our lives. Depression is different. Depression is a condition that might start with sadness over loss (grief) or a feeling of loneliness in some cases, but the feeling lingers and grows into something that can best be described by clients who have been there.
You don’t have to give up and let it swallow you. You might feel tired and bone weary, but depression is not a life sentence. We can help. We want to help. We know many people need us, so we are ready to help today. Reach out to get started.
Depression comes in many forms, including Bipolar Depression, Major Depressive Disorder, Complex Grief, and Mixed Depression and Anxiety. Depression can be the central issue (root problem) or it can be a symptom of other issues, including trauma (PTSD), Dementia, Personality Disorders, and so forth. Depression can also be caused by certain biological reactions to medications, a lack of sleep (insomnia), poor nutrition, and even weather (Seasonal Affective Disorder). Regardless of the type or cause, depression is real and pervasive. Here are common symptoms to look for:
When it comes to prevalence (who has depression), studies have shown that about 14.8 million people (6.7% of the American population) suffer with depression, and women are twice as likely to struggle with it as men.
We encourage you to take action, get in the driver’s seat, and get on the road to wellness. Go ahead and start today. Call for your appointment. Commit to overcoming depression. Get back to the life you have been searching for.
Call us for an appointment to get started. We accept all major medical (health insurance) plans, and we offer evening and weekend sessions.
