With over 25 years of human/social services work experience, I am confident that I can guide clients toward a better version of themselves by helping them process challenging circumstances in their everyday lives.

I specialize in trauma, domestic violence, sexual assault recovery, substance use, and criminal justice–related concerns. I am known for my compassionate, empathetic, and open-minded approach, helping clients feel safe, supported, and understood as they work toward healing and stability.
I earned my bachelor’s degree in criminal justice from Georgia State University and my master’s degree in professional counseling from Grand Canyon University. I am a nationally certified counselor, a certified grief counselor, an advanced certified clinical trauma specialist, and a certified forensic mental health evaluator.
I take an existential, humanistic, and solution-focused approach to therapy, incorporating cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, acceptance and commitment therapy, and client-centered therapy. My goal is to help you gain insight, build motivation, and achieve meaningful change. I look forward to supporting you on your journey.

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.

More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.
Life is good—everything is in order and you are at peace. Then, right on cue, another challenge comes knocking at your door. Maybe it’s depression or anxiety; perhaps it’s the loss of a friend or a job; maybe it’s tough parenting decisions. Whatever it is, it makes a mess of your life. You’re no longer the feel-good, peaceful person that you were just a few days ago.

A lot of people think that online counseling is a new, innovative form of counseling. In reality, though, it’s been around for decades! It first emerged as a mental health hotline, evolved to include online self-help groups, and today has branched out into individualized help with a licensed counselor via phone or video chat. The online therapists and counselors at Thriveworks Savannah are exactly that: licensed as well as skilled, caring providers who are prepared to help you overcome whatever challenge is at your door.
Online counseling is sometimes referred to as teletherapy, e-counseling, and cyber counseling. It all refers to the same thing: individualized help with an online counselor. Here at Thriveworks Savannah you will get to choose from telephone counseling and video counseling. The former option is the simpler of the two, as you’ll answer your counselor’s call at the time of your appointment. This means all you need is access to a phone and phone service. The latter is also fairly simple, as with video counseling, you’ll click a simple link that will take you to your video chat with your counselor at the time of your session.
Some people would simply rather take the conventional route and meet with their counselor in person. That’s okay, too! Online counseling isn’t for everyone. However, it is helpful and beneficial to all when external factors prevent you from making it to your normal in-person session: for example, a virus, poor weather conditions, or car trouble. In these instances, you can easily move your session online.
Online counseling has proven effective for many people. In fact, some people find it to be more effective, especially people who feel anxious or uncomfortable about therapy. These individuals often find that it’s easier to open up via telephone or video chat. Now, online counseling might also be for you if you’re looking for:
These benefits are causing many people to move their in-person sessions online. In addition to attending your sessions comfortably and conveniently from home, you get greater flexibility.

You don’t have to worry about rescheduling or cancelling due to the aforementioned unpredictable factors. Finally, online counseling is an affordable option, too. Many insurances now cover online counseling, including video and phone counseling.
Choosing to pursue counseling can be a difficult decision. Online counseling can take some of the weight off, as you don’t have to worry about fitting a 30 minute drive there and back into your schedule; it can also help to relieve any anxiety you might be feeling about this process; and it can offer utmost comfort and convenience.
