About
As a retired Army non-commissioned officer and multiple-tour combat veteran, I relate personally to the many challenges of reintegration to the civilian world and combat-related stress.
I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 11 years of experience supporting individuals through life’s most challenging moments. I have worked in inpatient, outpatient, and group treatment settings, and I have extensive experience working with military veterans, law enforcement, first responders, and individuals affected by post-traumatic stress. I help clients navigate stress, anxiety, trauma, addiction, and anger by creating a safe, supportive, and grounded space where meaningful healing and introspection can begin.
I earned my master’s in social work from Northwest Nazarene University, where I developed a strong foundation in evidence-based practices and client-centered care. My approach includes talk therapy, supportive services, lifestyle changes, healthy living planning, activity scheduling, outdoor engagement, and meditation to help clients reach their goals.
I look forward to meeting you and partnering with you on your path to healing. By taking this first step and scheduling an appointment, you are choosing to prioritize your emotional health and overall well-being. I am committed to helping you build resilience, discover new strengths, and move toward a healthier, more empowered version of yourself.

No one lives in a box, and I look at the entire person which means how physical health and environment impacts and interplays with mental health.
My path to becoming a psychiatric nurse practitioner was different than most. I completed my bachelor's degree and floundered, not finding a career that felt right before returning to school to become a nurse, then nurse practitioner. Throughout school, I was the go-to person when others needed someone to listen, so mental health and psychiatry felt like the obvious choice. I have worked in a variety of settings, from the corrections to mental health crisis centers. I began working as a psychiatric NP in 2013, with extensive experience in serious mental illness, addiction, depression, anxiety, and substance use within my own family.
As a nurse practitioner I incorporate my insight from all my various life experiences and work settings to create an individualized plan that addresses the patient as a whole person, not just their mental health medication. My goal is to help someone feel better and have a better quality of life.
Each of my patients is an individual to me, with their own life, stressors, and challenges—but also their own skills and strengths. I want to focus on the positives and moving forward in reaching healing and recovery, not just in mental health but also life in general.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Yes, there are therapists who help with anger via Anger management therapy. It’s a therapeutic process that an individual goes through to manage their anger and identify its triggers. They’re given clear instructions on how to improve their angry behavior as well as a safe space for opening up about their emotions.
Once an individual’s triggers are identified, anger management therapy focuses on helping the individual process and respond to these emotions in a more positive and productive manner. The anger management therapist will provide coping strategies and ultimately help their client take back control of their anger.
The five keys to mastering anger include identifying triggers, pausing before reacting, calmly expressing emotions, discovering constructive outlets for frustration, and seeking professional assistance if necessary. Acquiring these skills through Anger management therapy empowers individuals to effectively manage and navigate their anger.
The best therapy for anger management often involves cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps individuals identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior related to anger.
Anger management therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Often, Anger management therapy lasts between 4-6 weeks. However, it can last longer, dependent on the individual’s needs.
