About
As a therapist who values authenticity and connection, I strive to create a space where clients feel genuinely seen, supported, and empowered to navigate life’s challenges with self-compassion.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 4 years of experience supporting clients through anxiety, burnout, trauma, grief, identity exploration, and major life transitions. I am fluent in American Sign Language and have a background in trauma-informed care, accessibility advocacy, and animal-assisted therapy. I help clients reconnect with their strengths and build self-compassion when they feel overwhelmed or disconnected, focusing on insight, emotional balance, and sustainable growth.
I hold a master’s in social work from Gallaudet University. My work is grounded in mindfulness, cognitive behavioral methods, and strengths-based approaches to help clients understand patterns, build emotional resilience, and create meaningful change. I often blend nature-based elements and human-animal connection into my therapeutic work.
I know reaching out can feel intimidating, but you do not have to face life’s challenges alone. Whether you are seeking healing, balance, or a renewed sense of purpose, I’m here to walk beside you at your own pace. Together, we can create a space where you feel understood, empowered, and equipped to move forward with confidence and compassion.

As an experienced counselor, I strive to bring an authentic presence to every session, enabling clients to connect and share the most vulnerable aspects of themselves.
I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 9 years of experience supporting adolescents, adults, and couples through life’s most challenging moments. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and mindfulness-based healing. My approach is person-centered, allowing you to guide the pace while I offer evidence-informed interventions that help you explore your thoughts, emotions, and goals in a safe, supportive space.
I earned my master’s in professional counseling from Liberty University. I integrate cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and mindfulness-based work to support emotional growth and resilience. I am also trained in EMDR to help clients process trauma and move toward lasting healing.
Starting therapy can feel intimidating, but you do not have to walk this journey alone. Together, we will explore the parts of your story that need attention, compassion, and clarity. I will meet you with warmth and encouragement as you take meaningful steps toward becoming the healthiest version of yourself.

I understand everyone has their own story, and I make no assumptions or judgments but create a safe space for those I work with.
I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 10 years of experience in the mental health field. I specialize in working with individuals facing trauma, substance use, and major mental health disorders. I have experience supporting children, adolescents, adults, families, and individuals in community-based and correctional settings.
I earned my master’s degree in mental health counseling from Capella University. My approach is rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy, and I take an integrative approach to treatment. I believe therapy is not one-size-fits-all and tailors each treatment plan to meet the individual’s needs.
Whether you are starting therapy for the first time or continuing your mental health journey, I am here to support you. I will meet you where you are, help you build practical coping tools, and create a space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to grow.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Teen counseling helps young individuals better understand and manage the challenges that affect their mental health. Common challenges amongst teens include anxiety, depression, ADHD, and problematic relationships with food.
Teen counseling works by using multiple techniques, tailored to fit the teen’s unique needs — based on their age group, their challenges, and the severity of their challenges. It might involve cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, art therapy, and others for varying ages. In any case, Thriveworks teen therapists in Tigard have the expertise and experience to help young individuals at their level.
Signs that teens might need Teen counseling can be very subjective, as they are experiencing many changes and can have intense reactions to them. As parents, you know your child best and are best equipped to judge whether certain reactions are standard behaviors for your teen or whether they might be hinting at a larger problem. Even so, there are a few common signs and events that often point to a need for therapy, such as experiencing divorce or loss, grief, consistent low moods, teens distancing themselves and becoming isolated, losing interest in hobbies, excessive anger or irritability, substance use issues, and suicidal ideation, among others.
Teen counseling providers at Thriveworks in Tigard, OR offer both in person and online therapy by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The length of teen counseling depends on your teen’s needs as well as the goals that you and their therapist might have for them. Generally, teen counseling sessions will last for several months.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
Includes reducing symptoms with medication & management
