I have been working as a licensed therapist since 2015 with individuals, families and couples who have struggled with traumatic events, depression, anxiety and anger issues.
I provide a judgement-free therapy environment. My clients set goals, work to achieve those goals and move forward with their lives. I want my clients to experience feeling empowered, in control and accomplished. There is no issue or circumstance we can't work through together. I am excited about the training I have as a Psychedelic Assisted Therapist to use extremely safe and effective medicine like Ketamine. I use oral doses of Ketamine to facilitate a more enhanced therapy experience. Ketamine as a tool in the therapy session helps my clients feel more confident and at ease while facing challenging parts of their history.

Anger often makes us feel alone and as if no one would understand us even if we tried to tell them.
Clients I work with are often not very willing to open up about themselves and are at times uninterested in therapy. Some would like to change but do not want to have to talk with someone to accomplish change, others have tried before and never been able to form a good relationship with a therapist. My clients often have a high resting level of anger and likely have had issues in life with anger or are described as difficult by others.

Anger is a natural emotion that is unavoidable, so is sadness, and worry.
Do you ever find yourself irritated at little things, or the people close to you? Do you find yourself constantly worried, or discouraged by everyday life? Therapy can be a scary thing to consider, but my goal is to help you be the best version of yourself with a little support and encouragement! I use cognitive behavioral strategies mixed with brain & body education so my patients have a better understanding of how and why they may react to things in life that seem automatic and how they can take charge and re-direct these unhelpful reactions to feel more successful in life.

I guide clients through the challenges of depression, anxiety, anger, trauma, grief and relationship issues.
Are you tired of therapy not getting any results? I believe you can improve your mental health by tackling your problems head-on and looking at your situation from new angles. For many clients, my approach results in significant changes in 3-4 months. Life transitions (divorce, medical challenges, retirement, parenthood, emerging adulthood, personal identity) are highly stressful. I can help you find balance and happiness by examining your choices and values. Clients often tell me, “I’ve never thought about it that way before." I named my practice “Refreshing Perspectives” because that’s what you’ll find when you come to me.

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.
