About
As a licensed therapist, I believe that the best work is done in partnership with my clients, and together we can create and accomplish goals that improve mental health and well-being.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 6 years of experience supporting adolescents, adults, and families. I specialize in helping clients manage bipolar disorder, ADHD, substance use, depression, and anxiety. I aim to create a safe, collaborative space where clients can explore their emotions, build coping skills, and move toward emotional balance and self-empowerment.
I earned my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Southern New Hampshire University. My approach incorporates cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy to help clients identify patterns, regulate emotions, and develop healthier coping strategies.
I bring empathy, patience, and genuine understanding to every session. I believe everyone deserves the opportunity to experience happiness and fulfillment. Together, we’ll work toward developing the tools and mindset needed to overcome challenges and create lasting positive change.

As someone who has experienced mental health struggles in my own life, I understand the need for support and empathy during life's challenges.
I have over 10 years of experience in the field of social work. Throughout my career, I have worked in a variety of settings with teens, families, individuals, and older adults. My background includes experience in behavioral intervention, family therapy, mental health support, substance use treatment, and hospice care—where I had the honor of supporting individuals and families through grief and end-of-life transitions.
I received my Master's degree from East Tennessee State University and have been dedicated to learning new ways to support mental health. I tailor my approach to meet each client where they are, drawing from a range of therapeutic modalities including Person Centered, Humanistic, and Existential theories, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and somatic practices.
We all need support during life's challenges. I bring a calm and warm presence to my sessions, creating a space where clients feel safe, seen, and supported. Whether you're navigating loss, processing trauma, or simply seeking a more grounded sense of self, I am here to walk with you in that process.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Insomnia therapy is a tailored form of treatment that addresses chronic sleep disturbances, which can include problems with falling asleep, staying asleep, or experiencing restorative sleep. The goal of Insomnia therapy is to enhance sleep quality, establish healthy sleep routines, and, in turn, improve an individual’s overall well-being by mitigating and reducing the adverse effects of persistent sleep deprivation.
Insomnia therapy combines therapeutic approaches, with a central focus on cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) to modify sleep-disrupting thoughts and behaviors, integrating techniques like stimulus control, sleep restriction, and relaxation training. Thriveworks Johnson City therapists will also emphasize sleep hygiene education and may include mindfulness and relaxation exercises to improve sleep quality, equipping individuals with effective strategies to enhance their sleep and overall well-being.
Common symptoms of insomnia include:
Symptoms of insomnia often look different for everyone; however, there are some warning signs that can signal the need for insomnia therapy. These include feeling anxious about bedtime, bedtimes getting later and later, energy peaking at night rather than during the day, and drastic caffeine consumption in order to stay awake.
Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) is one of the most effective forms of therapy for treating insomnia, working to modify sleep-disrupting thoughts and behaviors through strategies like sleep hygiene and sleep restriction.
Insomnia therapy at Thriveworks Johnson City is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The duration of insomnia therapy can vary based on the individual’s needs and progress in treatment. Typically, it involves a short series of sessions over a few weeks to a couple of months, with the number and length of sessions decided in consultation with the therapist. Some experience better sleep within this time, while others choose longer therapy to address complex sleep issues or maintain good sleep habits.
Many people start to see improvements in their sleep patterns after about two to three weeks of CBT-I. However, the duration and effectiveness will differ for everyone, so don’t worry if it takes a bit longer to have a strong effect.
If you have been dealing with insomnia, whether mild or severe, consider insomnia therapy here in Johnson City.
The list of potential side effects that can come along with your lack of sleep can be quite significant. Those side effects include the following problems:
