About
As one who has experienced personal trauma and loss, I have a unique perspective on how life can be overwhelming and difficult, but how empowering it can be to grow and bloom into something greater.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 7 years of experience supporting individuals through life’s challenges. I’ve worked with people from all walks of life and have a natural ability to make others feel accepted, understood, and valued. I’m passionate about creating an inclusive, affirming space for everyone, especially those within the LGBTQIA+ community and individuals who are neurodivergent or living with learning differences. My goal is to meet you where you are and help you move toward growth and self-acceptance.
I earned my Master’s in Counseling from Grand Canyon University, where I developed a foundation in evidence-based approaches to emotional wellness. My counseling style integrates empathy, collaboration, and mindfulness to help clients build resilience, develop insight, and embrace their individuality on their healing journey.
Every journey has a beginning, and I want you to know that you don’t have to change for anyone but yourself. Together, we’ll move at your pace, uncover strengths, process struggles, and create a meaningful path forward. I would love the opportunity to connect and explore how I can support you in this process.

Marriage counseling, also known as couples therapy and relationship counseling, helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. Thriveworks marriage counseling in Oklahoma City, OK is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples. Some examples of common focuses within Marriage counseling include:
Marriage counseling works by helping couples identify and better navigate their unique challenges. Following an initial assessment of the couple in terms of strengths and needs, the therapist would then discuss their therapeutic goals and any possible approaches or ways of working together as therapist and couple.Couples attend sessions together, whether they meet in person or by video. In addition to regular marriage counseling sessions, each partner may also be asked to attend a few individual sessions to supplement their progress. This will allow their counselor to get to know each individual better, assess each of their personal needs, and develop the very best treatment plan moving forward.
Marriage 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 counseling for 12 weeks. However, 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. Marriage counselors and therapists at Thriveworks in Oklahoma City, OK work with their clients to create goals, decide on ideal timelines, and establish treatment plans.
