After attending our groups, clients report feeling less isolated, more connected with others, and more able to handle difficult emotions and stressful situations. Whether their default is to express their anger outwards or direct it inwards as resentment and self-criticism, my clients present with a desire to stop damaging the relationships they care the most about. Many show up to learn how to deal better with someone close who displays a lot of anger. My clients want to create intimate relationships, emotional intelligence, and conflict resolution. They want to take ownership of their lives and feel proud of their choices.
Anger is a mysterious door that holds many emotions and experiences within us. I have facilitated the Healing Anger group for women for ten years, have 25 years of clinical experience and specialized in anger for the last 10. I have three master's degrees, but most importantly, I have done lots of work to overcome trauma and my self-destructive anger.
Usually, the first thing that holds people back from working with anger is anxiety. Don't hesitate to reach out to see if we are a good fit. Many therapists refer people our way to do this specific work. We can determine the goals and ways of working together. I work from different lenses and adapt to my clients' ways of learning. Take good care!

Groups
Healing Anger
The Healing Anger Groups for Women are now held online and are 6 weeks long. By the end of the workshop, participants can expect to: 1. Understand the physiology of intense emotions. 2. Get insight on their specific triggers. 3. Relate better to difficult emotions by exploring how to manage them in an assertive way. 4. Have a taste of emotional intimacy, so that difficult emotions have the potential not to hurt, but to feed your relationships. 5. Understand the patterns and effects of abuse, and how to prevent it.
