As a woman who has dealt with my fair share of life’s ups and downs, I am passionate about helping others overcome their own ups and downs
I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 6 years of experience providing mental health care across a variety of settings. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, life transitions, substance use concerns, mood disorders, and gender dysphoria. I am passionate about supporting individuals who have faced barriers to accessing mental health services and strive to create an inclusive, affirming space for healing and growth.
I earned my master’s in clinical mental health counseling from Columbus State University. My approach is client-centered and collaborative, focusing on identifying individual needs while developing practical strategies for change. I incorporate coping skills, mindfulness-based techniques, and strengths-based interventions to support lasting progress.
If you are feeling overwhelmed or uncertain about your next steps, therapy can provide a supportive place to begin. I work to reduce barriers to care while empowering clients to build skills, confidence, and clarity in their daily lives. I invite you to schedule a confidential session and take the next step in your mental health journey.

Helping others in grief and loss counseling can include talking about the loss, learning about grief, and developing a new self identity post the loss. I enjoy seeing benefits of how the person can identify the unhealthy versus the healthy ways to behave post the loss.
Tools used in grief and loss counseling can include learning how to understand how loss is different from depression, how to see unhealthy behaviors on their day to day lives, and helping others develop new identities.
Ways to measure meaning progress is reporting ways to behave differently, talking about loss, building coping strategies and how to handle anniversaries.
Clients can supplement their time outside of counseling with monitoring healthy behaviors that formerly were harmful behaviors prior, talking with others about the loss, and understanding how to differential between grief and other things such as depression.
Prior to sessions, the client can read about grief and how it's different from other mental health conditions.
Grief and loss counseling helps people grieve difficult losses including the death of a loved one, the loss of a job, or the end of a relationship. It helps people navigate their grief process and eventually accept, understand, and move forward from their loss. Thriveworks grief therapists in Dallas, GA have specific experience, training, and skills that enable them to best support grieving individuals.
Grief and loss counseling isn’t one-size-fits-all, but it involves sharing about your loss and then working with your counselor to acknowledge and accept your new reality in its wake. Your provider at Thriveworks in Dallas, GA will design your treatment plan around your unique needs and goals for therapy, applying the counseling techniques that best support them.
If you have recently experienced an event like the death of a loved one, a breakup or divorce, the loss of a job, or another major life change, then you may want to seek grief and loss counseling. Grief can be caused by many experiences and events, so if you feel that you are having trouble moving on from a certain event or find that it is still impacting your life and functioning, grief and loss counseling can help you process it more effectively so that you can move on and once again find fulfillment and satisfaction in your life.
There are many counseling theories for treating grief, one of the most frequently used being the dual process model of grief which helps people acknowledge who or what they’ve lost through rumination while also adjusting to the new roles and identities that this loss has now placed on them. There are also many commonly used therapy approaches used in grief and loss counseling, including Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and traumatic grief therapy.
Grief & loss counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
For many, grief and loss counseling lasts for about 6 months. For others, it may last shorter or longer, depending on the severity of their loss and their grief.
