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.

Teen counseling helps young individuals better understand and manage the challenges that affect their mental health. Common challenges amongst teens include anxiety, depression, ADHD, and problematic relationships with food.
Teen counseling works by using multiple techniques, tailored to fit the teen’s unique needs — based on their age group, their challenges, and the severity of their challenges. It might involve cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, art therapy, and others for varying ages. In any case, Thriveworks teen therapists in Oklahoma have the expertise and experience to help young individuals at their level.
Signs that teens might need Teen counseling can be very subjective, as they are experiencing many changes and can have intense reactions to them. As parents, you know your child best and are best equipped to judge whether certain reactions are standard behaviors for your teen or whether they might be hinting at a larger problem. Even so, there are a few common signs and events that often point to a need for therapy, such as experiencing divorce or loss, grief, consistent low moods, teens distancing themselves and becoming isolated, losing interest in hobbies, excessive anger or irritability, substance use issues, and suicidal ideation, among others.
Teen counseling providers at Thriveworks in Oklahoma, OK offer both in person and online therapy by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The length of teen counseling depends on your teen’s needs as well as the goals that you and their therapist might have for them. Generally, teen counseling sessions will last for several months.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
Includes reducing symptoms with medication & management
