About
I believe that healing begins with feeling seen and heard, and my goal is to create a space where you feel safe being your authentic self.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 8 years of experience supporting individuals who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from themselves and others. I specialize in helping those navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, and self-worth concerns. My goal is to provide a warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental space where clients can gain insight, build emotional resilience, and move toward meaningful, lasting change at a pace that feels right for them.
I earned my Master’s in Counseling from Nova Southeastern University. My work blends evidence-based practices with deep empathy, drawing from approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy and person-centered counseling. I focus on creating a safe and supportive environment where clients can feel seen, valued, and empowered in their journey.
I understand how difficult it can be to reach out for help, especially when life feels overwhelming or uncertain. I offer a compassionate, client-centered space where you can explore your struggles without judgment and at your own pace. Healing is possible, and I am here to walk alongside you as you take steps toward growth and well-being.

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 Tigard, OR 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 Tigard, OR 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.
