About
As a PMHNP, I bring empathy, curiosity, and authenticity to every session, meeting you exactly where you are with respect and understanding.
I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) with 8 years of experience supporting adults and adolescents through challenges such as depression, anxiety, trauma, mood disorders, and stress. My work focuses on helping clients build emotional balance, strengthen coping skills, and deepen self-understanding. I aim to create a calm, collaborative space where you feel supported, respected, and empowered to move toward lasting change.
I earned my master’s degree in nursing from Simmons University and use evidence-based, integrative approaches tailored to each client’s needs. I draw from supportive therapy, cognitive behavioral strategies, mindfulness-based techniques, and medication management when appropriate.
I know reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, and you do not have to navigate this alone. You deserve care that honors your story, your strengths, and the pace that feels right for you. If you are ready to take the next step toward healing, clarity, and meaningful growth, I would be honored to walk alongside you.

OCD counseling is a specialized therapeutic approach aimed at supporting individuals coping with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The goal of this counseling is to help clients manage and alleviate the distressing symptoms of OCD by systematically addressing their obsessive thought patterns and compulsive behaviors.
In OCD counseling, Thriveworks Salem therapists use cognitive behavioral techniques, including exposure and response prevention, to assist you in addressing and managing your obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. An OCD therapist will collaborate with you to identify and modify irrational thought patterns while gradually and gently exposing you to anxiety-triggering situations, helping to disrupt the cycle of obsessive-compulsive rituals and promote healthier coping strategies.
Thriveworks OCD counseling in Salem, OR is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The number of sessions for OCD counseling is variable, contingent upon the individual’s unique needs, the severity of their condition, and their progress during treatment. Typically, Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), commonly used for OCD, comprises around 12 to 16 weekly sessions, but the exact session count can be customized based on the individual’s response to treatment and therapeutic objectives. Some opt for a more extended duration to comprehensively manage symptoms and address complex issues.
