About
As a survivor of domestic violence, I bring a deep personal understanding of how trauma shapes a person’s life, which fuels my passion for empowering others with compassion, hope, and guidance as they reclaim their voice, rebuild confidence, and move forward with resilience.
I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 3 years of experience providing mental health services to adults and children in telehealth and agency settings. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, and major life transitions. I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel seen, understood, and empowered to create meaningful change in their lives.
I earned my master’s degree in counseling from Troy University. My approach integrates evidence-based practices, including cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, solution-focused therapy, person-centered therapy, and trauma-informed care to support emotional regulation, insight, and healthy coping skills.
Reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, but you do not have to face life’s challenges alone. I am committed to meeting you where you are and helping you build clarity, stability, and resilience at your own pace. When you are ready, I invite you to schedule an appointment and take the next step in your healing journey.

Couples therapy and marriage counseling, also known as relationship counseling, helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. Some examples of common focuses within couples therapy and marriage counseling include:
The types of therapy used in couples and marriage counseling include:
At Thriveworks, Couples/marriage therapy is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples.
The Gottman Method of couples therapy is a research-supported approach designed to enhance relationships by bolstering the bond between partners, resolving conflicts, and fostering shared meaning in their relationship through comprehensive assessments and tailored interventions that improve communication, trust, and the overall health of the partnership.
If you’re facing persistent relationship problems, communication breakdowns, or unresolved conflicts that are impacting your emotional well-being and happiness, Couples/marriage therapy may be beneficial for you.
While marriage and couple’s counseling is typically recommended for couples who are experiencing persistent or severe relationship issues, any relationship can benefit from attending these sessions.
Marriage and couples counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
On average, couples attend marriage and couples counseling for 12 weeks. However, couples & marriage counseling may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress.
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.
The licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) and other qualified couples counselors at Thriveworks in Montgomery, AL aim to do a lot more than resolve conflict and address thorny relationship issues. They also aim to help significant others love each other “better”. This can be done through improving communication skills, building trust and attachment, helping partners see issues from each others’ perspectives, and reinforcing existing strengths in the relationship.
If you think you could benefit from relationship counseling, reach out to Thriveworks Montgomery today for help. We’ll get you scheduled right away.
The vast majority of couples who see a professional counselor report increased relationship satisfaction after therapy (which is usually completed in 12 sessions or fewer). So yes, relationship counseling can absolutely be transformative. And the lessons learned in therapy can endure for a lifetime, sometimes even outliving the relationship. At Thriveworks in Montgomery, AL, licensed therapists aim first to understand a couple’s objectives for therapy before they begin treatment. These objectives might include the following:
Once the Thriveworks therapist knows what the couple is seeking to accomplish, they can work on the issue together, whether it’s conflict resolution, chronic miscommunication, sexual issues, or something else. Couples therapy is usually short-term and targeted at solving problems. Occasionally one partner will choose to continue with individual therapy after exploring personal issues in marriage counseling.
Couples counseling works through a variety of evidence-based approaches. At Thriveworks in Montgomery, AL, different therapists might employ different strategies and methods for reconnecting couples. These methods might include one or a blend of the following:
Thriveworks marriage counselors offer fast appointment times, often as early as the week of reaching out. Plus, we offer evening and weekend sessions, provide same-week appointments, and accept most major insurances.
