About
As an LCSW with 4+ years of clinical experience and 15+ years overall, I bring professional expertise and personal insight to supporting individuals through trauma, loss, crisis, inpatient care, memory care, and life transitions. I believe building new skills and recognizing our strengths can empower us to heal, grow, and create meaningful change.
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Trauma Professional with 4+ years of clinical and 15+ years of experience. Licensed in North Carolina, I work with young and older adults, veterans, and those with anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, ADHD, grief, and relationship issues. I specialize in childhood trauma using evidence-based practices. From personal experience, I understand healing. Therapy means understanding who you've been, honoring what helped you survive, and becoming who you are. In our work, expect compassionate, supportive, collaborative care helping you move from surviving to living grounded and intentional.
My approach is trauma-informed, compassionate, and collaborative. I specialize in childhood trauma, anxiety, depression, PTSD, grief and loss,ADHD, and relationships. Together we identify limiting patterns and develop healthier coping skills. Expect supportive, nonjudgmental space at your pace. My goal is helping you feel grounded, empowered, and intentional.
Healing does not mean forgetting what you've been through; it means your past does not define your future. You deserve a safe space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow. I would be honored to walk alongside you toward healing, self-awareness, and balance. If ready, please schedule an appointment now. You do not navigate this journey alone.

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 Raleigh, NC 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
