Hi! My areas of interest and expertise include working with people who have survived trauma and sexual abuse. Initially, I build rapport and a trusting relationship with you. One of our first tasks will involve identifying your values and strengths, and focusing on safety and stability; this is a major component to allowing successful trauma processing and resolution to occur. I also enjoy working with adolescents; having once been a teen in need of additional support, I am able to empathize and quickly connect with young people. Other topics focused on at my practice are BPD, anger management, self-esteem, and relational issues.

Most people want to feel in control of their lives, that they can progress further towards their goals. Most people want supportive human connections and respect and joy. I am sensitive to the human need of attachment and authenticity, meaning we all need human connections and want to be accepted as ourselves. Sometimes we don't even know who we want to be or who we are really. My work helps bring out these crucial needs to the surface. And then the pathway to meet these needs becomes clear, individual path, everyone's unique.

I know how hard it is to overcome anger and fear.
From time to time, we all face challenges that can be overwhelming. Sometimes these challenges are situational, but they can also be the result of our lived experience(s) over time. Often they manifest as anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, and self harm. These manifestations can lead to further challenges such as job loss, family conflict, isolation, and addiction. Although we may flounder or experience failure, we can develop the strategies needed to live a flourishing life. Integrative therapeutic approaches including Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Positive Psychotherapy, and Solution Focused Therapy teach us how to live well.

My specialized area includes working with children/adolescents and adults struggling with mental health, stress/ anger management, family violence and co-parenting support.
I am glad you found me here. How can I provide a relationship to you that may be used for your personal growth? Many therapists urge clients to change themselves when circumstances cannot change. Our therapeutic relationship will encourage you to focus on controlling your inner life when your outer lives and circumstances are out of control, due to trauma, mental health, intrusive thoughts, cognitive distortions, and flashbacks/nightmares, which can lead to depression, anxiety, avoidance/maladaptive coping strategies such as addiction. If this sounds like you, I want to work with you to heal past wounds and regain control.

How many people are willing to understand the true feelings in a person's heart? I believe it is easy to define psychological illness, but it is very hard to find out a person's true feelings. This is the biggest challenge for one’s career. With that in mind, I work to understand all feelings and help all my clients learn to work through their difficulties to gradually become internally independent until they no longer need me.

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.
