About
I find it truly rewarding to help those who are struggling mentally.
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 6 years of experience, including 5 years dedicated to psychiatric care. I specialize in supporting individuals facing challenges such as depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder. I am passionate about providing compassionate, evidence-based care tailored to each person’s unique journey. My goal is to empower clients to achieve stability, improve their quality of life, and rediscover joy in their daily experiences.
I hold a Doctorate in Nursing from Frontier Nursing University. My approach combines empathic listening with motivational interviewing to create a safe space where clients feel understood and supported. By helping individuals recognize their strengths and guiding them toward meaningful change, I support lasting growth and resilience.
I welcome clients to connect with me in a supportive and collaborative environment, whether in person or through convenient telehealth visits. My care is designed to help individuals find balance, build resilience, and improve their overall quality of life. Together, we can work toward a stronger sense of peace and well-being.

Yes, there are therapists who help with anger via Anger management therapy. It’s a therapeutic process that an individual goes through to manage their anger and identify its triggers. They’re given clear instructions on how to improve their angry behavior as well as a safe space for opening up about their emotions.
Once an individual’s triggers are identified, anger management therapy focuses on helping the individual process and respond to these emotions in a more positive and productive manner. The anger management therapist will provide coping strategies and ultimately help their client take back control of their anger.
The five keys to mastering anger include identifying triggers, pausing before reacting, calmly expressing emotions, discovering constructive outlets for frustration, and seeking professional assistance if necessary. Acquiring these skills through Anger management therapy empowers individuals to effectively manage and navigate their anger.
The best therapy for anger management often involves cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps individuals identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior related to anger.
Anger management therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Often, Anger management therapy lasts between 4-6 weeks. However, it can last longer, dependent on the individual’s needs.
