About
As an individual who has experienced anxiety and depression, I understand the value of having support to help you navigate through these issues. I would love to be that support for you and walk alongside you as you become the best version of yourself!
I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Mental Health Service Provider qualification (LPC-MHSP) with 7 years of experience. I'm passionate about helping children, adolescents, adults, and families with young children address challenges to live a better and more meaningful life. I specialize in depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, addiction, behavioral issues in children, and major life changes. I completed my Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Milligan University. My personal mental health experiences coupled with my education and professional experience enable me to give clients the support they seek.
I utilize multiple treatment approaches based on the client's individual needs, including mindfulness/grounding techniques, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, parent-child interaction therapy (PCIT), and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR).
Reaching out for help can be very intimidating, so I commend you for your courage in taking this step! I provide a compassionate, empathetic, supportive, and non-judgmental environment to walk alongside clients as they work toward meeting their goals. If you're ready to begin this journey, schedule with me today.

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 Knoxville, TN 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 Knoxville, TN 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.
If it is unexpected, the shock of life changing so dramatically in an instant can be totally overwhelming. It can take weeks, months, even years, to fully recover. Even if the loss of a loved one is at the end of a long illness, the grief can be too much to bear. A grieving process is normal after any loss, but if it is prolonged or severe, an experienced grief counselor may be needed.
If you are struggling as a result of loss, consider reaching out to Thriveworks Knoxville for grief counseling. We can offer you compassionate care within the week.
In this life, we will all experience death. Even though it is an absolute guarantee, we are almost never fully prepared when it happens to someone we love. The loss of a spouse, a parent, a child, a friend, a sibling, even a pet, is one of the major stressors in life. There are many signs that grief is becoming overwhelming. Being unable to go about your daily activities, becoming reclusive from friends and family, replaying the events surrounding the death obsessively; all of these things are signs that the grieving process has stalled. It is also common for unhealthy behaviors to begin as a result of grief.
Whether you are trying to get help for a loved one that is dealing with a loss, or if you need help for yourself, you have come to the right place. When you conducted the search that brought you to this page, you were presented with many choices for counseling. When you choose Thriveworks, you can rest assured that you have placed your trust in experienced professionals. We have licensed grief counselors and therapists that are trained and experienced in dealing with a wide variety of situations. We are ready to put our expertise to work for you.
At Thriveworks, we pride ourselves on not operating with a waiting list. We understand that your time is precious, and that in order to pursue counseling, you have to take time out of your schedule for yourself. That’s why we work to make counseling as convenient as possible—offering evening and weekend sessions, providing same-week sessions, accept most major insurances, providing in-person and online care options, and so much more. Reach out today to get started and experience these benefits for yourself.
