About
I know firsthand what it’s like to face anxiety, stress, trauma, and grief. That’s why I’m dedicated to walking alongside others as they navigate their own challenges, offering hope, compassion, and support to help them move forward and live a fulfilling life.
I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 18 years of experience in the mental health field. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, family conflict, and parenting concerns in children, adolescents, and adults. I have extensive experience providing individual therapy, family therapy, and parental support services in therapeutic counseling settings.
I earned my Master of Science in mental health counseling from Walden University. I am trained in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy and EMDR, and I take an individualized approach to care, recognizing that no single model fits every client. My style is direct, honest, and compassionate.
I strive to create a safe, supportive space where you can openly explore your experiences and goals. Together, we will develop a personalized treatment plan to help you build insight, resilience, and meaningful change. If you’re ready to begin your healing journey, I invite you to schedule a session.

Abuse therapy helps people heal after physical, mental, verbal, or emotional abuse. At Thriveworks Maumelle, our therapists assist abuse survivors in managing and overcoming the challenges that stem from it including depression counseling, anxiety, PTSD, lack of trust, fear, and more.
Abuse therapy works by providing a safe space for the survivor to process and heal from their experience. It can utilize several different approaches to assist in the process but is ultimately designed around the individual and their unique needs.
Abuse therapy at Thriveworks Maumelle is conducted both in person and virtually with online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Abuse therapy may last for several months or years, as there is often long-term trauma stemming from one’s abuse. This allows survivors to have a long-term, committed partner to navigate subsequent challenges with and get back to living a happier, more fulfilling life again. Get help from one our of Maumelle therapists by scheduling an appointment today.
“Hold her hands…while I hit her!” This short sentence struck me more profoundly than any other sentence I have heard since I started counseling. It wasn’t the words so much as the person who was talking and the person being told these things. A client explained that it was her own mother who said to hold her hands, and it was her father who complied. Together the mother and father physically abused this client many times. The astonishing part that followed was when she said, “I was never afraid of the physical abuse. I was tough and used to it. It was the emotional abuse that broke me.”
If you are in need of counseling for abuse (of various types) then this segment is for you. Reach out today to get the support that you’re looking for.
In layman’s terms, abuse is treating anyone with cruelty or violence, especially regularly or repeatedly. It can take many forms including verbal, emotional, mental, physical, sexual, and even financial.
Verbal abuse is perhaps the most common, which varies from loud rants (yelling) to quiet comments (threats and attacks on self-esteem); from obvious put-downs and name calling to not-so-obvious taunts that undermine/harm a partner, spouse, or child. What all these forms of verbal abuse have in common is the need to control using shame, guilt, and/or fear. Even one episode could be considered abusive but, in many cases, abuse is a pattern of behavior formed over time.
In many cases, there will be multiple forms of abuse that are used together. Physical, emotional, and sexual abuse are combinations that make up complex abuse. Verbal, emotional, and financial abuse are also combined in cases of complex abuse. When it comes to abuse each case can be quite different or follow a very common pattern. If you recognize some or all of these forms of abuse you can get help. You need not suffer in silence. You might consider abuse counseling.
The single most powerful thing any victim of abuse can do is DECIDE that they have had enough. Even then, escaping abuse and ending abuse are very difficult to handle alone. The abused person can feel guilt or shame, which are obstacles to overcome in counseling. An abused person might also be afraid to leave a bad situation or even ask for help. The fear is real and paralyzing in some cases. Even if there is the will to get help, a client might feel trapped and without options. These are all situations where a qualified counselor can help. At Thriveworks, our clinical experts are trained to do the following:
