About
Having personally known the impact of hardship and poverty, I bring a deeply empathetic, trauma-informed approach to walking alongside others as they heal, grow, and rebuild their lives.
I am an Associate Clinical Social Worker with 5 years of experience dedicated to helping individuals heal, grow, and create lasting change. I work with adults and families navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, and major life transitions. I believe therapy is a collaborative process where we uncover strengths, build resilience, and foster self-compassion. My trauma-informed approach creates a safe, nonjudgmental space for healing and discovery at your own pace.
I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Massachusetts Global. My practice integrates person-centered, trauma-informed, and strength-based approaches. I support clients in rebuilding confidence, developing coping skills, and finding meaning through authenticity, trust, and shared understanding.
Reaching out for help takes courage, and you don’t have to face life’s challenges alone. Together, we can work toward stability, healing, and positive change. I’m honored to walk beside you on your journey toward a more balanced, empowered, and fulfilling life.

Grief and loss counseling helps people grieve difficult losses including the death of a loved one, the loss of a job, or the end of a relationship. It helps people navigate their grief process and eventually accept, understand, and move forward from their loss. Thriveworks grief therapists in Thousand Oaks, CA have specific experience, training, and skills that enable them to best support grieving individuals.
Grief and loss counseling isn’t one-size-fits-all, but it involves sharing about your loss and then working with your counselor to acknowledge and accept your new reality in its wake. Your provider at Thriveworks in Thousand Oaks, CA will design your treatment plan around your unique needs and goals for therapy, applying the counseling techniques that best support them.
If you have recently experienced an event like the death of a loved one, a breakup or divorce, the loss of a job, or another major life change, then you may want to seek grief and loss counseling. Grief can be caused by many experiences and events, so if you feel that you are having trouble moving on from a certain event or find that it is still impacting your life and functioning, grief and loss counseling can help you process it more effectively so that you can move on and once again find fulfillment and satisfaction in your life.
There are many counseling theories for treating grief, one of the most frequently used being the dual process model of grief which helps people acknowledge who or what they’ve lost through rumination while also adjusting to the new roles and identities that this loss has now placed on them. There are also many commonly used therapy approaches used in grief and loss counseling, including Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and traumatic grief therapy.
Grief & loss counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
For many, grief and loss counseling lasts for about 6 months. For others, it may last shorter or longer, depending on the severity of their loss and their grief.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
Includes reducing symptoms with medication & management
