About
"We are born in relationship, we are wounded in relationship, and we can be healed in relationship." – Dr. Harville Hendrix
I am a licensed marriage and family therapist with 3 years of experience supporting children, adolescents, couples, and families. My background also includes over 15 years in the healthcare field, which has strengthened my ability to help people improve their relationships with themselves, their partners, and their families. My work focuses on helping clients recognize and transform recurring patterns, reduce blame and shame, and create healthier ways of relating that foster understanding, compassion, and connection.
I earned my master’s in marriage and family therapy from Regis University. I use a humanistic, systemic, and experiential approach, integrating emotionally focused therapy, internal family systems, the Gottman method, and relational life therapy to help clients understand and change unhelpful patterns in their lives.
If you struggle with conflict, disconnection, or communication challenges, you’re not alone. It takes courage to ask for support, and taking that step is the first part of healing. I would be honored to walk beside you as you navigate your journey toward growth, self-awareness, and more fulfilling relationships. Let’s work together toward meaningful change.

As someone who has received therapy, I have a deep appreciation for the meaningfulness of the therapeutic process and how impactful and transformative it can be.
I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 11 years of experience providing therapy to children, adolescents, and adults. I specialize in treating trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, grief and loss, family dysfunction, and life stressors. My approach is strength-based, holistic, and trauma-informed, with a focus on helping clients build resilience and move toward meaningful change.
I earned my master's degree in social work from Columbia University. I have advanced training in cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, and child-parent psychotherapy, and I have extensive experience supporting individuals and families navigating complex challenges.
I believe therapy works best as a collaborative process. I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental environment where you feel comfortable exploring your experiences at your own pace. Together, we will honor where you are in your journey and work toward goals that feel meaningful and achievable for you.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Domestic violence therapy is a specialized form of counseling that helps victims and their families heal from abusive relationships. It is a crucial component of the broader efforts to address and combat domestic violence, a pattern of abusive behaviors within intimate relationships that can encompass physical, emotional, psychological, sexual, or economic abuse.
In domestic violence therapy, therapists create a safe and supportive environment. Domestic violence therapy is often part of a broader support network that includes legal assistance, shelters, and community resources. Its aim is to break the cycle of abuse, promote safety, and foster healthier relationships.
Domestic violence therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and via Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
Domestic violence therapy can last for a few weeks, months, or longer, depending on the individual’s exact needs and preferences.
There are many types of abuse. Sexual, physical, and emotional abuse can all take a serious toll on the person being abused. The good news is that counseling can help. It is never your fault that you’re abused but you can take control and get your life back. Reach out today for domestic abuse counseling at Thriveworks Westminster, CO.
Every situation is unique but it’s common for abuse to follow a specific cycle. Generally, it starts off with the abuser being tense. They may argue more than usual, they may threaten those they’re close to, and they may become angry. They’ll often have a “reason” for this anger but remember that reacting in anger is never the right answer for a problem. The next step in the anger cycle is typically for them to become violent. This doesn’t have to mean physical violence, although it often does. It can be sexual violence or emotional abuse.
The abuser will typically seem out of control. It’s common for the person being abused to feel like it’s their fault or that they can stop the anger. They can’t. Finally, the abuser will move on to feel remorse. This is often referred to as the honeymoon period. The abuser will swear that they’ll never do anything like that again. They will say they’re sorry and they likely are sorry. They may cry and show sincere emotion. But just because they are emotional and regret what they did does not mean they’ll be able to control themselves when the cycle continues.
So how can a counselor help a person being abused? It all depends on what the person needs. At Thriveworks Westminster Counseling & Coaching, your safety is our top priority. We know that not everyone in an abusive situation feels safe leaving. We can offer crisis services if you need them or help you find the resources you need. We can walk you through your complicated feelings of shame, guilt, anger, and love with professional guidance. Reach out today to get started.
