My therapeutic approach is rooted in empathy, active listening, and collaboration. I understand that healing from complex trauma, navigating the intricacies of life experiences can be a profound journey. I partner with my clients to empower them to overcome obstacles, develop resilience, and find authentic self-expression and fulfillment. I utilize evidence-based therapies, such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and trauma-focused CBT, to help clients heal from past experiences, rebuild a sense of self, and develop healthier coping mechanisms.

I know that you are looking for an accepting, individualized environment to heal and grow through past experiences and current challenges. You may feel like you don’t understand what is happening in your life, you may start to notice patterns and make connections, but find that you don’t know where to go from here, how to build healthier habits and new understandings of the world, or just generally feel overwhelmed and all around not great.

You don't have to figure out "life" alone. This can seem overwhelming and lead to feelings of anxiety, depression and confusion. Past or current circumstances can also block us from moving forward. If you are experiencing these feelings, have trauma or feel stuck you can feel better.

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.
