About
As someone who grew up in the field of mental health, I have come to appreciate the therapeutic value of allowing others to express themselves without reservation as well as affording them the respect and dignity they duly deserve.
I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with over 24 years of experience, and I’m passionate about helping adults and children navigate life’s challenges. My work spans anxiety, depression, trauma, divorce, grief, and relationship issues, among others. I often describe therapy using a “puzzle” analogy: you dump the pieces out, we work together to find the edges, and eventually, we begin to see how the full picture comes together to form understanding and healing.
I earned my master’s in counseling psychology from the University of Southern Mississippi. My approach focuses on helping clients find relief through honest self-expression while uncovering the deeper patterns behind their experiences. Together, we cultivate awareness and resilience in the face of life’s inevitable challenges.
Life’s problems don’t have to be faced alone. Therapy with me offers a safe, flexible space to talk, unwind, and explore what matters most to you. I hope that each session leaves you feeling more grounded, insightful, and ready to move forward with a clearer sense of peace and purpose. Let’s begin this journey toward healing together.

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. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. 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.
Counseling is a powerful passage for exploring and improving your mental health. It can help you better understand your emotions, including how to cope, manage, and communicate these feelings; it can help you better resolve arguments with your loved ones as well as other relationship issues; it can help you better manage stress and eliminate certain unnecessary stressors from your life; it can help you work through and understand any symptoms of depression, anxiety, or another mental illness; it can help you accomplish many different goals, of which ultimately enable you to live a happier, more successful life.
That’s the goal here at Thriveworks Mississippi: We want to help people live happy, successful lives. And we tackle this mission by setting people up with skilled, caring mental health professionals who can help their clients with their unique challenges. Now, Thriveworks Mississippi also helps people live better by offering additional counseling benefits, including flexible online counseling opportunities.
We’ve seen a need for online counseling, which offers greater convenience and comfort in counseling, without sacrificing the many benefits that one receives in working with a mental health counselor. That’s why we function entirely online and offer both telephone counseling and video counseling options at Thriveworks Mississippi. If you’re interested in working with an online counselor, contact our office. We’ll be happy to assist you.
Both telephone counseling and video therapy are viable options if you’re wanting to start online counseling. Now, you might prefer one over the other, depending on what your specific needs and inclinations are. For example, telephone counseling might be the better option for you if you’d like a greater level of anonymity in counseling. If, however, you like that face-to-face interaction that you can get in video therapy, this might be the better option for you. If you just aren’t sure, that’s okay too. You are more than welcome to give both a try at Thriveworks Mississippi Counseling.
Now, here’s a little bit about each, so that you can make an informed decision on which online counseling option you’d like to try first:
If you’re ready to schedule an appointment for telephone or video counseling, reach out to Thriveworks Mississippi Counseling today. We’re ready for you.
Think of everything that you can accomplish with a counselor. Earlier, we listed a few goals that you can achieve in counseling including:
There are many other goals you can achieve with the help and support of a counselor, too.

This means that they determine what will best help someone only after getting to know them and what their needs are.
The counselors at Thriveworks Mississippi Counseling are more than happy and ready to help you. If you’ve determined a need or even just an interest in working with a counselor, we’d love to talk with you.
