I support adults experiencing anxiety, difficulties with addiction or recovery, and challenges with anger or emotional regulation.
My ideal client is an adult experiencing anxiety, emotional distress, or feeling unsettled during a life transition. They may be managing work, relationships, or recovery on the surface while feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck internally. Many have a history of complex stress, trauma, or mental health challenges and want support that feels grounded, respectful, and non-judgemental. Their goal is to better understand themselves, feel more emotionally steady, and reconnect with their values and sense of agency.

Sunet Gopaul Hub l Trauma Therapy
Psychotherapist, ACA-L4
Serves Area
People often arrive with a cocktail of symptoms, including Depression, Anxiety, Anger issues, substance abuse, etc.
Most therapists aren't specifically trained in trauma, and many who are may rely on just one trauma-specific technique within a general talk therapy framework. I do things differently. Trauma therapy is what I specialize in. I’m trained in multiple trauma-specific methods as well as Neuropsychotherapy, so I can adapt the work to meet your unique nervous system and needs, not the other way around. Take the first step towards healing from Trauma, reducing Anxiety and Depression, and enhancing your quality of life.

Also helping you with anger, anxiety, stress, and making changes in your life.
Welcome. I'm Louise, anxiety counsellor, ADHDer, mum of two kids, one cat and one dog, lover of nature and home reno shows, and recovering stress head. Eight years ago I was in full-on stress mode so I made some changes (some big, some small) then returned to this work I truly have a passion for. I especially love helping women in their 30s and 40s move from stressed, cranky, stuck and overwhelmed, to calm, clear and actually enjoying life, rather than rushing through it on autopilot. That said, I work with adults of all ages and everyone is welcome! What brings people here is usually anxiety, stress, burnout, overwhelm, &/or ADHD.

You might be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected—like something isn’t quite right, even if you can’t fully explain why. Or perhaps you’ve been carrying a lot for a long time and are ready for a different way forward. I work with adults experiencing trauma, anxiety, relationship difficulties, depression, burnout, and life transitions, as well as those noticing recurring patterns, self-criticism, or a deeper sense of disconnection. Therapy becomes a space to slow down, make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface, and begin moving forward with more clarity and stability.

You might be here because the bad days never seem to end.... perhaps you're feeling emotionally exhausted, disconnected or you’re stuck in a cycle of negative thought patterns like, “I’m not good enough” or “I'll never change or get better”. Maybe you're struggling with anxiety, chronic stress, fatigue, depression, emotional numbness, difficult memories.... or past traumatic experiences that continues to affect your life today? There may be tension in your body that feels more emotional in origin, or you're feeling disconnected from yourself and others. Perhaps it's finally beginning to take a toll on you, or your relationships?

Anger Management Therapists
How long does therapy take for anger management?
Treatment duration depends on the person’s specific challenges and circumstances. There are treatments for anger problems that are shorter and more goal-oriented, like Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), which can last weeks to months. Others, like Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) may last between six months and a year, while a more intensive treatment, like psychodynamic therapy, is open-ended, and clients may see their therapist for a year or longer.

How do you know if you need therapy for anger management?
Everyone gets mad from time to time. But when angry outbursts become frequent and cause damage to relationships, whether at home or in the office, it may be a good time to look into therapy. A therapist can assess where a client’s anger may be coming from, suggest strategies for averting angry outbursts, and help a client create a plan to become a calmer version of themselves.

Is there medication for anger management?
Medications do exist that help people mitigate the feeling of anger, but these are reserved for people with anger-related psychiatric disorders, such as intermittent explosive disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, or in some cases borderline personality disorder. In these cases, antidepressant medications may be prescribed to help with the client’s symptoms. In most cases of anger management, however, talk therapy is the recommended treatment, along with lifestyle changes where relevant.

What’s the best way to encourage someone to seek help for anger issues?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either themselves or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
