About
As a therapist, I believe it is important to create space for safety and connection where we can explore the intersections of mind, body, and emotion with curiosity, self-trust, healing, and intentionality.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 3 years of experience supporting individuals as they navigate life’s challenges and rediscover their inner strength. My approach combines evidence-based therapy with mindfulness and compassion to help clients reconnect with mind and body. I believe healing begins when we feel safe enough to explore our thoughts and emotions with openness, curiosity, and self-acceptance, allowing space for growth and meaningful transformation.
I earned my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Oklahoma. In my work, I integrate mindfulness, somatic awareness, and cognitive-behavioral techniques to help clients build insight, emotional balance, and self-compassion. My goal is to offer a calm, grounded, and nonjudgmental space for self-discovery and healing.
In our sessions, I’ll hold space for your strength and your struggle. Together, we’ll explore patterns that shape your life and uncover new pathways for growth. I value curiosity, empathy, and collaboration in the therapeutic process because true healing happens through connection, understanding, and compassionate presence.

At Thriveworks, Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) primarily concentrates on assisting individuals in emotion regulation, enhancing interpersonal relationships, and acquiring effective coping strategies for managing stress and emotional difficulties.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) targets your personal challenges. You may work with your DBT therapist to maintain diary cards to monitor progress, emphasizing validation and support in the therapeutic relationship. DBT follows a stage-based approach, prioritizing crisis reduction initially and life satisfaction.
DBT was initially developed to address the needs of individuals with borderline personality disorder (BPD). However, its versatile approach has enabled its application to a wide range of mental health conditions, including but not limited to, anxiety, depression, stress, and anger issues.
The 4 pillars of DBT are mindfulness, emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, and distress tolerance.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) have distinct purposes and aren’t inherently superior or inferior to one another. DBT is most effective for managing emotional regulation, personality disorders, and interpersonal challenges, while EMDR is specifically tailored for individuals with trauma-related conditions like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) with therapists at Thriveworks in Norman, OK is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The duration of a standard DBT program is typically around 24 weeks, which is roughly six months. The actual number of sessions will vary depending on the issues you wish to address.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
Includes reducing symptoms with medication & management
