About
As someone who has struggled silently, I know the pain of being strong. I provide a culturally sensitive and compassionate environment where you are seen, heard and supported.
I am a licensed marriage and family therapist associate (LMFT-A) with 9 years of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families as they navigate relational challenges, emotional stressors, and major life transitions. I have worked across diverse settings providing in-home services, crisis intervention, parenting and co-parenting support, and family-focused care. I’m committed to helping clients strengthen communication, build emotional resilience, and create healthier, more fulfilling connections.
I earned my master’s in marriage and family therapy from Brandman University. I take a personalized, evidence-based approach, drawing from cognitive behavioral therapy, emotionally focused therapy, solution-focused therapy, and narrative therapy. I specialize in anxiety, depression, anger, grief, relationship issues, and communication challenges.
Everyone struggles at times, but you don’t have to face those moments alone. I offer a warm, judgment-free space where you can explore your emotions, gain clarity, and build meaningful coping skills. I’m here to support your healing and help you move toward the balanced, connected life you deserve. I look forward to working with you.

Christian counseling in Colorado Springs is a form of faith-based counseling that utilizes psychological and spiritual techniques to guide and support. Often, Christian counselors often incorporate prayer and scripture-reading into treatment to help practicing Christians work through their challenges.
Christian counseling works by focusing on themes of hope and healing through one’s faith. At Thriveworks, your Christian counselor will discuss Christian values and relate them to your unique struggles. You can expect to discuss the following with them:
Christian counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and via Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Christian counseling can last for a few weeks, months, or longer. It depends on what challenges the client might be working through, the severity of those challenges, as well as other needs or preferences.
Colorado Springs Thriveworks has trained therapists adept in counseling strategies and share your Christian faith. They understand how important your walk with God is and encourage your spiritual and personal growth.
Christian beliefs are overflowing with hope, love and healing. Spiritual health is just as important as mental and emotional and is often the missing piece in therapy. Colorado Springs Thriveworks can offer that missing piece!
There is nothing shameful about receiving extra, external help as a Christian. Believers are meant to strengthen each other, and a Thriveworks counselor is nothing but a fellow believer with professional training in therapy. Reaching out for help does not reflect negatively on your faith, it actually signifies strength!
In many ways, a session with one of Thriveworks’ Christian therapists will be like any other therapy session: uniquely structured to fit your needs and goals and orientated to produce personal growth! Christian therapy deviates from the norm in that it can focus on the shared spiritual beliefs between client and counselor. It exists on a spectrum and can be heavily influenced by your faith or have more of an emphasis on traditional therapy strategies. It is up to you!
Often, Christian values are brought up and talked about in regard to your personal struggles. Scripture can be examined, and we can discuss how your faith intertwines with adversity: mental or otherwise. Christian therapy may be for you if you have questions or doubts about:
The possibilities of discussions and applications are limitless. Christian therapy can be supplemental to any type of therapy- no matter the problem! Some common situations that benefit from Christian therapy include, but aren’t limited to:
Any other trials you may be experiencing!
Our job as therapists is to facilitate your personal growth- growth that is led and achieved by you. We share your beliefs and want to help you use your faith to achieve your goals, but we do not push our personal beliefs on anyone.
Any denomination or religion is welcome to Christian therapy. Your Christian faith plays a huge part in your life already, and that should not be different when you come to therapy. Colorado Springs Thriveworks is here to help you become the best you; we don’t have a wait list and are eager to assist you in finding that next day of sunshine!
