Anger Management Therapists in 55105

Immediate availability. You've carried the weight of your struggles alone for far too long. The mere thought of reaching out for help, expressing your needs, and acknowledging your worth as a person feels like an insurmountable hurdle! Anxiety and depression seem to have a firm grip, distorting your perspective. Navigating through emotions has become a labyrinth, and anger simmers beneath the surface. The pressures of life have left you seeking effective stress management strategies. Self-esteem feels elusive, and issues related to masculinity and femininity weigh heavily on your shoulders. Perfectionism has crushed self-acceptance.

I see individuals and couples. One of my strengths as a therapist is working respectfully with men who would rather not be in therapy. I understand why many men are skeptical about therapy, or uncomfortable talking about feelings, and I do not get judgmental or impatient about this. Men who are concerned that in couple therapy they might be ganged up on and blamed will find that I don't this, to them or their partner. And of course, I also enjoy working with women, and with men who are comfortable with therapy!

I work with clients dealing with a wide variety of issues, including anxiety, depression, grief, anger, loneliness, guilt, and fear. Said simply, my clients are people, entangled in life's struggles, and they just want to get better.

After experiencing a devastating series of personal, relational, occupational, family, social and spiritual obstacles in my life, my self-talk was often times self-defeating. I was discontent, lacking purposeful meaningful contact with others and felt empty inside. Instead of accepting my reality and the changing interaction between the environment, others and myself - I was caught between staying the same or recognizing and embracing change. Whether you are in a time of transition or a time of pain, I believe that we all have the tools we need to walk toward a loving and meaningful life.

Do you spend too much time comparing yourself to others? Are you frustrated in trying to communicate with those you love? Does your career feel like a dead end? There is HOPE and a way forward. I see people change their lives on a daily basis. I will be with you on this journey, understanding you, helping you to identify patterns that are getting in your way and encouraging you on your path towards an internal revolution and becoming the best version of you.

If you are struggling with feeling stuck, hopeless, or overwhelmed, therapy may be exactly what you need. Within the therapeutic relationship, you will find nonjudgmental acceptance, an empathetic listener, and compassion for every part of your life story. In working together, I believe that we can untangle some of the thoughts, fears, and challenges that may be holding you back from your greatest potential.

With 40+ years working as a psychologist, I work with a variety of clients struggling with mental health and life issues. Many clients seek my help for anxiety, depression, serious and persistent mental illness and life transitions. My patients include children as young as 7, adolescents, adults and seniors in their 80's. Clients are often referred to me for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, relationship issues and sports-related performance concerns. I also have experience working with individuals and families where there are life-threatening health issues, infertility and pregnancy loss for both mothers and fathers.

I am a second generation Korean-American born and raised on the unceded ancestral lands of the Dxʷdəwʔabš (Duwamish Tribe) and now live as a guest upon Mni Sóta Maḳoce, Dakota homeland. My relational approach is built upon 15+ years working with and alongside individuals, families and communities to nurture growth as an educator, coach, trainer and leader. Becoming a parent in 2014 both broke and broke me open, ushering intergenerational healing and cultural reclamation that continues today. A lifelong learner, I continue to journey along a path towards “Becoming a Good Ancestor” (credit: Layla Saad).

Spring is here - it's time to take action. Aren't you tired of being miserable, depressed, sad, anxious, or just simply being unhappy with your life? Let this be your season to change and learn how to be happy and content and stop sabotaging your life. How about learning to do things differently so that you just don't keep creating the same dynamics. I am a down-to-earth, straight-forward psychologist. I am well versed in treating a wide variety of disorders and mental health issues and I am comfortable working with individuals from a variety of professions.

My approach to therapy is relational, attachment focused, systems based, and trauma informed as I believe how we experience the world is through an eclectic lens of our relational and developmental histories, genetic and biological make-up, experiences with others, and the communities in which we live. I believe that sometimes healing is best ignited through connection, support, and exploration. I practice primarily with adult individuals, families, and couples navigating the effects of stress, PTSD/trauma, identity exploration and self-esteem, life transitions, oppression, and dual-diagnosis.

Turning towards any source of conflict takes a great deal of strength and courage. The fact that you're here, reading my profile, is an indicator you're considering facing your source of conflict. You might be struggling with how to communicate. You and your partner may be having difficulties sharing with each other your needs for closeness, appreciation, and connection. You might even find yourselves having the same arguments nearly every day about things like life changes, household responsibilities, or parenting disagreements.

As a therapist, I place tremendous value on building a trusting therapeutic relationship and providing a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where you feel seen, heard, and accepted. You can expect a warm, empowering, creative, patient, and explorative environment. I enjoy working with individuals of all genders, races, and cultural backgrounds from ages 12 and up. I am passionate about helping individuals increase their self-awareness and self-compassion, identify and utilize their strengths, and develop skills to navigate challenges.

I help men and the conflict-avoidant transform their relationships. My clients feel so angry they could explode or so defeated they are shutting down completely. In relationships they often hear themselves saying things like: “I don’t know how it got here,” “Things weren’t perfect but I didn’t think it was this bad,” and “I’ve tried so hard but nothing seems to work.” Their inner messages often sound like: “I just feel numb,” “I get so afraid to do anything, whatever I do will be wrong,” and “I can never get it right, so I just give up and be quiet.”

Waitlist. I believe that we are all story tellers of our own lives. The story evolves based on our past experiences, which in turn, may be how we view the world and our place in it. A few key ingredients people need to thrive are safety, significance and a sense of belonging. We need to be seen and heard. I offer a space that is safe for that to happen.

Navigating interpersonal relationships to enhance wellbeing and a sense of tranquility need not be a solitary endeavor. The world can feel chaotic; our lives need not mirror this tumult. Feelings of irritation, sadness, fear, and emptiness are normal in times of change and uncertainty. When these feelings become overpowering or they are negatively impacting your life: change is critical. I believe exploring your ideal personal philosophy is critical to (re) establish life balance.
