About
Having gone through personal trauma and loss, I truly recognize how deeply we are affected by difficult life events. I've seen how developing new life skills can empower us to regain control and move forward.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 19 years of experience providing individual and group therapy for children, adolescents, adults, and families. My work centers on a strengths-based approach that highlights each person’s abilities, relationships, and potential for growth. I specialize in helping clients navigate life’s challenges, heal from past experiences, and build meaningful connections that support lasting change.
I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Michigan. My approach integrates trauma-informed care with cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, motivational interviewing, and Gestalt therapy. I focus on the whole experience of health, promoting resilience and sustainable change within a safe, supportive environment.
Beginning therapy is a courageous step toward transformation. I strive to create a collaborative, respectful space where clients feel empowered to explore their emotions, strengthen coping skills, and make positive changes. Together, we work to cultivate self-awareness, overcome barriers, and move toward a more fulfilling, balanced life.

Psychologists are mental health professionals that provide psychotherapy services and diagnoses for their clients. They have more research-focused training than most therapists, as they are more medically educated and receive a more general education about therapeutic approaches and theory.
Thriveworks psychologists in Tigard, OR provide standard psychotherapy services, tailoring treatment to each client and their unique concerns. However, they can also provide diagnoses to clients when appropriate, something that therapists and counselors cannot do. Finally, in some states in the U.S., they are allowed to prescribe medication.
Psychological treatment at Thriveworks Tigard is very individualized and specific to each client, which means that the duration of treatment is often varied depending on a client’s condition or disorder, the state of their symptoms, and their specific goals.
Charles Darwin once stated, “It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is the most adaptable to change.” Though this is the theory of evolution by natural selection in a nutshell, it’s also great motivation to go to therapy. You can be the smartest person in every room you enter, but if you can’t harness the psychological insights necessary to achieve good mental health, you’re still going to have trouble coping with daily stress and adversity.

It determines how we relate to people and how well we cope with the stressors of daily life. It helps us achieve our goals and realize our fullest potential.
