As one who has witnessed and experienced the impact of complex trauma, I have a deep sense of empathy and understanding of how emotional wounds can cloud our ability to live fulfilled lives.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Dialectical Behavioral Therapist with over 20 years of experience. I am honored to come alongside individuals facing challenges in relationships, anxiety and depression, and difficult or traumatic experiences. These can lead to hopelessness, despair, fear, shame, and guilt, and I appreciate the opportunity to help those in need find hope, purpose, meaning, restoration, and joy. I also work with young children, preteens, and adolescents and their families navigating situations like divorce or sudden loss, as well as couples who wish to repair and rebuild.
My approach is to join you as a guide through your healing journey, almost like a therapeutic Google Map—you stay in the driver's seat. While we're together, you'll be in an environment free of judgment where you can be truly seen and heard. Younger clients will have a creative space to communicate through play and process the chaos and stress around them.
Therapy can feel vulnerable and is sometimes seen as a sign of weakness. In truth, seeking help is a sign of strength and bravery. We were wired and built to do life together, and your motivation to seek help is actually you doing what you are built to do. I truly hope and look forward to working with you so you can see what is possible for your life.

My go-to approach for helping people in couples/marriage counseling is empathy. Of course, there are also clinical orientations, such as solution-focused therapy or person-centered therapy, but the basis behind my approach is empathy. When two people come together, compromise is key. The old saying opposites attract is very true. What we forget is that once together, we are still opposite. It is my position in the journey of couples therapy to aid couples in navigating the learned behaviors, cultural differences, and feelings in order to find a proper medium. I find the best benefit in active listening. Most people just want to be heard and validated, and then they are willing to do the work.
Couples who select Thriveworks for couples counseling will find therapists who use strategies designed to help couples honestly reflect upon their relationship and set goals.
When couples are making meaningful progress in couples counseling, the evidence lies in the couple moving away from being stuck in conversations and decisions and toward being more comfortable with their voices and choices.
Clients can supplement their time in couples/marriage counseling with the continuous use of self-help tools such as books, podcasts, and workbooks/journaling. Make a conscious effort to use learned tools such as using 'I' statements and practicing active listening. Practice healthy conflict resolution strategies like taking breaks when needed, identifying underlying issues, and finding compromises. Practice not internalizing your partner's emotions and using non-defensive behavior. Finally: validate, validate, validate!
To prepare for an initial couples counseling session, couples can prepare by considering what goals they want to reach as a couple.
Thriveworks Couples therapy helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. It is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples. Some examples of common focuses within couples therapy include:
Couples therapy works by helping couples identify and better navigate their unique challenges. Following an initial assessment of the couple in terms of strengths and needs, the therapist would then discuss their therapeutic goals and any possible approaches or ways of working together as therapist and couple.Couples attend sessions together, whether they meet in person or by video. In addition to regular couples therapy sessions, each partner may also be asked to attend a few individual sessions to supplement their progress. This will allow their counselor to get to know each individual better, assess each of their personal needs, and develop the very best treatment plan moving forward.
Couples therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and via Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
On average, couples attend couples therapy for 12 weeks. However, couples therapy may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress.
The writer Ralph Waldo Emerson once stated, “The only way to have a friend is to be one.” Perhaps this is true of spouses and other intimate partners as well: The only way to have a great partner is to be one. But relationships can become lopsided, and people drift apart. What do you do when your intimate relationship is no longer meeting your mutual needs?
The couples therapists and marriage counselors at Thriveworks in Rowlett, TX can help couples identify strengths and weaknesses in their relationships, so they can grow both as friends and intimate partners. Relationship counseling at Thriveworks is a safe, private, and compassionate way to promote mutual understanding and resolve conflict, and can be done conveniently online or in person, depending on your preferences.
Marriage counseling is a type of therapy that works to help married couples with conflict resolution, communication, and synergy. Marriage and family therapy can be used for regular maintenance of a relationship, so that both partners will be able to cope better with any future stressors, or to resolve a present issue (or issues) that a couple feels unable to work through on their own.
Couples therapists and marriage counselors at Thriveworks in Rowlett, TX use their extensive training to facilitate growth and rapport in relationships. They do this by addressing the following elements:
One popular form of couples counseling takes place in preparation for marriage. In premarital counseling, partners can discuss a wide range of topics that will be relevant to a future partnership. Premarital therapists at Thriveworks in Rowlett, TX might help couples explore concerns like the following:
When couples begin couples or marriage therapy at Thriveworks, it can be a huge relief to know that they will now have professional insight into their relationship issues.
