I use trauma-focused practices and empathetic, open-minded approaches to help clients find meaningful change.
I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 3 years of experience supporting clients through anxiety, stress, life transitions, trauma, and emotional overwhelm. I aim to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and experiences openly. My approach is grounded in empathy, collaboration, and helping you build coping skills, strengthen relationships, and move toward healing and meaningful change.
I earned my master’s in social work from the University of Arkansas. My work is rooted in trauma-informed care, including trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy. I adapt treatment to your needs and use practical, evidence-based strategies that support emotional regulation, clarity, confidence, and sustainable progress.
In our work together, I strive to build a trusting and supportive relationship where you feel heard and respected. My style is warm, collaborative, and focused on identifying strengths and solutions that align with your goals. I would be honored to walk with you as you work toward clarity, relief, and meaningful growth.

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 North Little Rock, AR 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
