About
I believe that even through setbacks and unimaginable life events, compassionate support can help us grow, heal, and embrace that we’re all a work in progress.
I am passionate about helping individuals navigate life's challenges and create meaningful, lasting change. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients can feel heard throughout their therapeutic journey. I work with individuals who may be experiencing anxiety, depression, and other emotional or behavioral challenges. Many clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain about how to move forward. Others are seeking personal growth, healthier coping strategies, improved relationships, or a deeper understanding of themselves. My approach is collaborative and client-centered.
I believe that while therapists provide guidance, support, and clinical expertise, clients are the experts on their own lives. Together, we identify strengths, explore obstacles, and develop practical tools that support healing and resilience. My goal is to help clients make meaningful changes while building greater confidence and self-awareness along the way.
Life's challenges can feel heavy, but healing is possible. My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate space where you can explore, grow, and move forward with confidence. If you're ready to take the next step, I would be honored to support you along the way.

I work with clients who may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or uncertain and are seeking a safe space to process their experiences, develop healthy coping skills, strengthen emotional well-being, and create meaningful change.
I use a person-centered, trauma-informed approach, drawing from CBT, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques to meet each client where they are.

You don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone.

As someone who has personally struggled with depression and anxiety, I understand what it feels like and how building new life skills can empower us to heal.
I am an Associate Clinical Social Worker. I have a Masters in Social Work from Touro College in New York City. For the past several years I have been working as a therapist with clients who experience depression and anxiety. I also work with people in life transitions, and those that are having difficulties in their relationships. I work with adults of all ages, including older adults who are struggling with grief and loss, loneliness, isolation, and health concerns. Together we find out what behaviors and patterns are getting in the way of making changes, and we work on finding new ways of moving towards feeling better about life.
Therapy with me is a collaborative process. We will move at your pace, working to understand what’s going on beneath the surface, and build self-awareness, self-trust, and compassion for yourself. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, mindfulness, solution-focused therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
You don’t have to have anything figured out. You simply need a willingness to show up and be curious about your inner world. Together, we’ll make space for your emotions, and reconnect with the parts of you that may feel lost or unheard. I am here to work with you. Give yourself the gift of therapy.

As an African American, cisgender Female, I am passionate and relational when working with communities of color, and I understand the importance of being seen and understood, while also recognizing the need to express personal experiences without judgment.
I am an associate clinical social worker (ACSW) with 3 years of experience providing client-centered, trauma-informed care. I support individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, and identity- or relationship-related concerns. My work is grounded in empathy, collaboration, and evidence-based practice, and I strive to create a nonjudgmental space where clients feel seen, understood, and supported as they work toward emotional stability and personal growth.
I have my master’s degree in social welfare from the University of California, Berkeley. My approach integrates cognitive behavioral strategies, motivational interviewing, talk therapy, and trauma-informed care. When appropriate, I incorporate creative, play-based, and expressive techniques to support emotional processing in a developmentally responsive way.
Reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, and you do not have to navigate life’s challenges alone. I offer a collaborative and supportive environment where your experiences are honored, and your goals guide our work. Together, we will build insight, resilience, and practical coping skills to help you move forward with clarity and confidence

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.
Have you been going through a difficult time lately? Are you struggling with depression, anxiety, or another mental disorder? Do you feel like you need to talk to someone about your issues but are afraid of being judged by your friends or family? You aren’t alone.
Many mental health issues are highly treatable under the guidance of a trained therapist, but some people never take the first step to give treatment a chance. Perhaps you know you could use professional help from a counselor or therapist but the idea of sitting face-to-face with a stranger in an office is daunting. Or maybe life just keeps getting in the way and you find it difficult to make the time for regular therapy sessions.
For these reasons and more, online therapy has become an increasingly popular alternative to traditional therapy in an office environment. All you need to do is open a video chat to speak with a licensed online therapist from the comfort of your home. You don’t have to hide your mental health struggles or wrestle with them yourself. Our team of online therapists is here to help at Thriveworks Counseling in San Bernardino, CA. Reach out today to schedule your first appointment.
The basis of many mental health treatments is called talk therapy, a process by which a client speaks openly with their therapist about fears, personal issues, emotions, and daily experiences. As long as you have a quiet space and are willing to be honest with yourself and your mental health professional, you can experience the power of therapy wherever you are.
For this reason, many clients find online therapy to be just as effective as in-person therapy. Some of Thriveworks’ most common online therapy services include:
