About
As a woman who has faced death and gone on to live in faith, I can kindly help others overcome through painful times in life (past or present) and help them move into better futures.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 12 years of experience helping adults, adolescents, and children navigate life’s challenges. I specialize in supporting individuals who want to strengthen relationships, overcome trauma, or find peace while managing depression, anxiety, or fears. I have worked in community mental health and with faith-based organizations. My approach is compassionate, goal-focused, and rooted in building healthier connections so clients can enjoy life more fully.
I earned my Master’s in Counseling from Liberty University, where I gained a strong foundation in evidence-based practices. I integrate communication skills training, cognitive behavioral therapy, Christian interventions, and trauma reprocessing into my work. Upon request, I also provide faith-based counseling to support spiritual growth.
I believe in meeting clients with patience and understanding while creating a safe space for growth. Whether you are seeking peace, stronger relationships, or healing from trauma, I am here to walk alongside you. If you are unsure that things can improve, let’s talk, and I will hold hope for you until you are ready to believe in it yourself.

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 Virginia Beach 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 Virginia Beach, VA 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.
